Influence of a stationary magnetic field on water relations in lettuce seeds. Part II: experimental results.

摘要: An experimental study on water absorption by lettuce seeds previously treated in a stationary magnetic field of 0–10 mT is presented. A significant increase the rate with which absorb observed interval treatment. increment total mass absorbed this also observed. These results are consistent reports germination seeds, and theoretical calculation variations induced fields ionic currents across cellular membrane. The originate changes concentration thus osmotic pressure regulates entrance to seeds. good correlation between approach provides strong evidence that alters relations effect may be explanation reported alterations field.
