Abstract
This experiment was performed to observe morphological changes in rice leaf tissue caused by a successive UV-B radiation. Effect of UV-B radiation on the structural alteration of tissue was not visually found, however, Photosynthate containing phosphate was sharply reduced in proportion with an increase of UV-B radiation. Fundamental components of cuticle layer were being degraded after 6 h of UV-B radiation compared to the control. UV-B-induced mesophyll cell appeared altered because of water stress, the shape of chloroplast appeared to be considerably shrunk and chloroplast thylakoid membranes were severely destructed. Primary cell wall of UV-B-stressed tissue was entirely scattered or disappeared, and the secondary cell wall due to lignin synthesis and deposition resulted in being thickened, almost 2-times, compared with the control.
