Abstract
The characteristic X-rays excited in carbon compounds of seeds by ultr alow energy (110 keV) ions implanted in wheat seeds were simulated wit h carbon-light of synchrotron-radiation. Af ter the seeds were irradia ted with the C-light, the through-germination survival fraction of the seeds and the micronucleus frequency in their root-tip cells could be measured. The data verify that the characteristic X-rays excited by t he ultralow energy ions implanted in the seeds provide an important me chanism of crop breeding. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
