研究目的
To improve the growth and development of wheat seeds via alteration in surface morphology using low pressure cold plasma and laser irradiance exposure.
研究成果
Low pressure cold plasma and laser irradiance exposure have established their potential to improve the growth and development of wheat seeds via alteration in surface morphology. These treatments enhanced the germination rate and resistance against fungus attack, which could be advantageous for the seeds with a slow pace of germination.
研究不足
The study focused on specific conditions of plasma and laser treatments, and the effects on other types of seeds or under different environmental conditions were not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Plasma and laser-based treatments were applied on wheat seeds to study their effects on germination rate, growth resistance, root to stem ratio, water absorption, and protein concentration.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Galaxy-2013 wheat seeds, healthy and of equal size, were obtained from Ayoub Research Center, Faisalabad, Pakistan.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition for plasma treatment, Q-switched Nd:YAG pulsed laser for laser treatment, scanning electron microscopy for surface morphology analysis.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Seeds were treated with plasma at varying exposure times and voltages, and laser irradiation at different pulses. Germination rate, fungus resistance, water absorption, and protein concentration were measured.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Germination rate was calculated using a formula, protein concentration was measured using the Bradford method, and surface morphology was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy.
