Abstract: In order to study M_(1) biological effects of heavy ion irradiation on maize seeds, the embryos of dry maize seeds are irradiated with~(7)Li ions and~(12)C ions as well as ~( 60)Co gamma rays. The results are as follows: ~( 60)Co gamma rays decrease germination impetus and germination rate of maize seeds, while the inhibitory effects of germination impetus and germination rate induced by the heavy ions~(7)Li and~(12)C are not significant. The difference of photosynthetic rates among the plants irradiate...
