Seed Treatment with Cold Plasma and Electromagnetic Field: Changes in Antioxidant Capacity of Seedlings in Different (L.) H. Karst Half-Sib Families.

This study evaluated whether seed treatment with cold plasma or an electromagnetic field can alter antioxidant capacity in Norway spruce seedlings across ten half-sib families. The abstract reports that responses varied substantially by genetic family and seedling age, with some families showing increased antioxidant…

Gamma radiation and magnetic field mediated delay in effect of accelerated ageing of soybean.

This study evaluated gamma radiation and static magnetic field treatments on soybean seeds stored for six months and then subjected to accelerated ageing. The authors report that certain gamma doses (3–5 kGy) and magnetic field strengths (100–200 mT) helped maintain seed protein/oil characteristics and antioxidant…
