Description
The local effect of soft X-rays on the growth and heat-resistance of sunflower plants was studied. Irradiation of the main point of growth with doses of 27 and 36 Gr was found to raise the limit of heat-resistance of the plants by 2.5-3.0 deg C. This is apparently related to the accumulation of the dry mass of the leaves owing to the inhibited growth of the stem. A direct correlation was established between the heat-resistance of the plants and the content of firmly bound wat.er in the leaves
