Abstract:Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma has been utilized as a sustainable technology to enhance seed germination in various plant species. The objective of this research was to identify the mechanism of physicochemical properties and antioxidant enzyme activities to promote kangkong (Ipomoea aquatica Forssk.) seed germination using different durations of DBD plasma treatments. Seeds were exposed to atmospheric DBD plasma from 5 to 20 min, compared to non-treated seeds as the control. According to SEM images… Show more
