Interaction of Microwaves and Germinating Seeds
Description:
This investigation was concerned with determining the interaction of microwaves with germinating seeds. This study covers two different approaches. The preliminary efforts covered the response of germinating seeds to treatment by microwaves and heat. The second phase of the investigation used microwaves as a probe to determine some of the processes of early seed germination.
The preliminary investigation measured the internal metabolic process by ATP production. Leakage of ions and organic mate…
