A laboratory experiment was conducted in the laboratories of the Faculty of Agriculture - Omar Al-Mukhtar University to study the effect of X-rays on the germination and growth of wheat seedlings, where sterilized seeds of wheat seeds of type Oxad 1 were placed in petri dishes after being exposed to three different doses of X-rays (60, 75, 110 kV(
The study showed highly significant differences in the germination speed as a result of exposure to the radiation intensity of 75 kV, and the higher this rate, the lower the germination speed, and the root and radicle length also had a highly significant effect when exposed to the radiation intensity of 110 kV.
The study indicated that the differences in dry weight were not significant according to the intensity of grain exposure to X-rays, while the weight of fresh showed clear significant differences when exposed to the rate (60, 75 kV(.
While the size of callus showed significant differences at the radiation intensity of 75 kV.
We can say that exposing grains to X-rays for a short period before planting them with a radiation intensity of 75 KV is a precursor to increasing the size of the green group of seedlings and thus the ability to benefit from the rains at the beginning of the season.
In the end, we can say that this study may be a promising start to improve crop production under drought conditions.
