View larger version (23K): [in a new window]   Fig. 3 Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) concentration in the external rooting medium of rice (cv. Pankaj) grown in gnotobiotic culture with rhizobia. The values (A) were determined colorimetrically and (B) were determined by high performance liquid chromatography. DAI = days after inoculation. The error bar indicates the standard error of the means
