Low-intensity local laser radiation effect on crop quality of seed

Abstract

Investigated laser-induced electrical characteristics of seeds of wheat variety Mironovskaya 808. The resulting distribution of surface gradients of bioelectric potentials (BEP) of the seeds along their longitudinal axis in the stationary state and after laser illumination. Demonstrated correlation of axial gradients of BEP with indicators of sowing qualities of seeds. Suggested possible regulation of axial gradients of BEP external physical factors (for example, the influence of the local monochromatic radiation), which can provide controlled changes in the physiological electrical activity and other vital parameters of seeds and their sowing qualities.
