Abstract:
Rice seeds (Oryza sativa L.) have been treated with cold atmospheric plasma in air both directly in a dielectric barrier discharge and indirectly by gliding arc discharge with plasma activated mist. Comparisons of impacts of the two methods on rice seeds germination and physiological parameters are presented. Plasma has been found to increase seeds hydrophilization and water uptake through decrease of liquid contact angle and increase of total surface free energy of seed’s coat. Germination of treated seeds and their seedling growth parameters are enhanced by plasma application.
