Abstract:Plant diseases pose a significant threat to global food security, leading to substantial yield losses and economic damage. In recent years, irradiation technology has emerged as a promising approach to enhance plant disease resistance. Gamma irradiation, a well-established technique, has been utilized for approximately 60 years to develop new plant varieties with improved resistance to pests and diseases. X-ray is another form of ionizing radiation, has also shown the potential in enhancing plant disease resis… Show more
