Description

The article shows the results of the experimental research of the formation of free radicals in seeds radiated by plasma with the help of spectrum of electronic-paramagnetic resonance. The dependence between light impulses and free radicals presence in the tomato and cucumber seeds is analyzed. The dependence of the crop yield of tomato and cucumbers on the time of seed radiation is shown. The dependence of the free radicals presence in the vegetable seeds on the integral dose of the radiation is displayed. Radiation by low-temperature plasma leads to generation of free radicals in seeds of crops. The presence of uncoupled electrons is the consequence of excited state of the system and so only soft influence is necessary to generate additional uncoupled electrons
