INCREASES OF DRY WEIGHT IN WHEAT LEAVES AFTER X-IRRADIATION

Journal Article · · Biophysics (USSR) (English Translation)
OSTI ID:4276845
The dry weights of type 599 winter wheat leaves irradiated at 500, 1000, 3000, 5000, and 10,000 r at 4 days old were determined. The dry weights increased with the growth depression. Above the dose producing complete depression there was no further effect. The dry weights increased with the time the plants were allowed to stand in the light, particularly in the plants in which growth was completely suppressed. The increase is assigned to the accumulation of materials normally utilized in growth. (auth)
