Biostimulation of the growth of wheat seeds produced by modulated pulsed diode lasers radiation

Abstract

In this work we determine the radiation intensities and times for a system designed on base of pulsed diode lasers with λ = 904 nm to produce biostimulation effects on two physiological parameters of wheat seed "Triticum aestivum L" of the variety Nahuatl F2000: the growth of steam and root. The experimental design was carried out through the guidelines and requirements established by the ISTA (International Seed Testing Association) 2009. Descriptive statistic was applied to analyze the existence of stimulatory effects in this type of seeds.
