The amount of salt to make seed sorting solution for rice of the specific gravity of 1.13 was reconsidered and determined as 3.8 kg salt in 18L water, which is lower amount than currently used. Various rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars were used to examine seed specific gravity effect on germination, seedling emergence, and early growth. Percent germination and seedling emergence were not different. Seedling emergence rate of Japonica varieties, Nampyungbyeo and Daerypbyeo-1 were 87% and 95% under specific gravity of 1.13, respectively. Seedling emergence rate of Tongil type variety, Dasanbyeo was as high as 67% in specific gravity of 1.06. Seedling emergence rate of waxy rice, Hwasunchalbyeo and Aranghangchalbyeo were examined. Seedling emergence rate was 94% in both cultivars in specific gravity of 1.04. Seedling emergence rate was same in specific gravity of 1.08 which is generally used for selecting seed currently. Early growth (plant height, leaf number, and dry weight) were not significantly different by specific gravity within species. In all cultivars except waxy rice, highest seedling emergence rate was observed in specific gravity of 1.13 which is currently used for selection and decreased as specific gravity is lowed. However, considering total amount of seeds in each group of specific gravity, amount of seed in lower specific gravity group is relatively small and total seedling emergence rate within variety dose not show big difference. As a result, it is considered that selecting seeds with water (larger than specific gravity of 1.00) instead of salt solution will not make large reduction in seedling emergence rate and have no effects in early growth.
