Popis:	The protective effect of a synthetic terpenoid analog of abscisic acid (ABA), coded LAB 173711, on transplant shock in rice was investigated under field conditions. Rice seedlings (Fujisaka 5 and IR 20) were taken from a seed bed and their roots were immersed in aqueous solutions of the growth regulators for 24 h. Afterwards they were drought-stressed for 3 or 6 h by exposing them to direct sunlight before they were transplanted to the field. A pretreatment with either LAB 173711 alone or in combination with the growth retardant tetcyclacis reduced the loss of water during the exposure to sunlight, increased the percentage of survival of the seedlings in the field, and increased the percentage of grain filling of the plants which had survived. The combined application of growth regulators was most effective and may be useful for minimizing transplant shock in rice and other crops.
