Abstract

The objectives of the study were: 1. To determine the effects of radiations from gas-plasma on the early and total germination of machine delinted cottonseed. 2. To determine the effects of radiations from gas-plasma on the radicle development of machine delinted cotton-seed. 3. To determine what effects the different excitation fre-quencies have on early and total germination and on radicle development of machine delinted cottonseed. 4. To determine what effects varying the current intensity have on early and total germination and on radicle development of machine delinted cottonseed.
