STUDYING THE EFFECT OF IRRADIATION IN DEPENDENCE OF BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SEED IRRADIATED
Technical Report

OSTI ID:4293576
Experiments on the seeds of wheat, barley, oats, and rye showed that the ontogenetic younger seeds were more susceptible to irradiation than the older ones, with a smaller percentage of germination and a lower number of primary roots. The artificial tetraploid form of Petkus rye was more resistant to irridiation than the diploid one, which could be ascribed only to the greater number of chromosomes. In natural polyploids of wheat the effect of irradiation depends more on the characteristics of the kind of variety in question than on the chromosome number. Finally, the single or double hybrid corns are more resistant to irradiation than any inbred lines. (auth)
