Radiation induced stimulation of plating efficiency of free plant cells was observed following irradiation with X-rays (1.25 Gy, dose rate 3.1 Gy.nin(-1)) and fission neutrons (1.5 Gy, dose rate 0.05 Gy.nin(-1)). The dose range where the radiation stimulation effect is manifest is inversely correlated with the applied dose rate.The results are discussed in view of the radiation induced stimulation as it is applied in agricultural practice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
