Abstract
The effects of an extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELFMF) on the ger mination of plant seeds were examined. The decrease in the germination acti vity of the seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana NN'S kept in saturated humidity a nd high temperature (37 degreesC) was suppressed by the exposure to a 400 m T ELFMF.
