. Plant Material, Growth Conditions, and Phenotypic EvaluationWe used the rice (Oryza sativa L.) seeds of the transgenic (OxF3H) and non-transgenic Nogdong cultivars provided by the Plant Molecular Breeding Laboratory, Kyungpook National University, Korea [41]. Rice seeds were sterilized with fungicides overnight and then washed with double distilled water three times. Next, the rice seeds were soaked in water for four days in an incubator in the dark condition at 32 °C, with the water changed after each 24 h as previously reported by [41]. After soaking and successful sprouting, rice seeds were transferred to autoclaved soil and kept in the dark again for three days. After growth, the three week rice seedlings were exposed to light and kept in a greenhouse for further experimentation.

The previously hidden and diverse underwater acoustic world in British ponds has been revealed by a team of researchers at the University of Bristol.

Acoustic monitoring has been shown to effectively survey birds and monkeys in rainforests, and marine mammals in the oceans. However, freshwater environments have remained largely unexplored despite their diverse soundscapes.

analysis of the audio files revealed clear daily acoustic activity cycles in each pond
