Use of the radio mutagenesis gamma to diminish the germinative periods of the seeds

Among the nuclear techniques that have been used in Cuba in to feasible way for their it lives it uses in the agriculture it dog think about that the radio mutagenesis is that of advance it lives. In this address the fundamental problem consists in that to the being to casuistically method forces to uses to great initial population. The Fruit Bomb Net Maradol was studied and it was obtained to diminish its germination period in 12 days without affecting the quality of the cultivation. The seeds were irradiated with an irradiator with source of Co-60, originator of radiations a (gamma) with to power of dose of 2,76 kGy/h and to half energy of 1,25 MeV. The dose range applied to the seeds was among 50 - 250 Gy
