Effects of 111 days enhanced UV-B radiation on leaf pigments, grain quality, photosynthesis and growth were determined in Chinese superhigh-yield hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) Liangyoupeijiu (Peiai 64S × 9311). The chlorophyll concentrations of leaves under enhanced UV-B radiation were slightly reduced in the tillering stage, but recovered to levels equal to or above those of control in the later growth stages. Leaves treated with enhanced UV-B radiation for 99 days exhibited higher absorbance in the UV region than controls. Amylose concentrat...
