Rice is a staple food for more than 50% of the world's population. Asia produces and consumes about 90% of all. Carbon dioxide levels are rapidly increasing in the atmosphere from 270 ppm to 384 ppm in 2009 and then 401 ppm in 2016. Different studies show that increasing CO2 has a positive impact on rice by enhancing the photosynthetic rate while others claim that long them Co2 can mediate the adverse effect on rice. Different research has been done on rice under elevated CO2. Most of the studies concerned physiology and yield. As the effect of elevated CO2 on seedlings has not been studied yet, here we applied 800ppm CO2 for 8 days and collected data. The results showed that elevated CO2 significantly increased rice seedling growth, germination rate, vigor, and speed of germination which increased from 83% to 92%.
