The article investigates the influence of low-intensity pulsed radiation electromagnetic fields on the cell structure of spring wheat seeds. The study reveals that exposure to this electromagnetic field prior to sowing in a controlled laboratory setting significantly enhances various growth parameters. Specifically, it increases the germination rate and overall germination success, as well as the mass of both sprouts and roots when compared to a control group that did not receive the treatment. Data collected through optical microscopy from sections of both irradiated and unirradiated seeds, alongside results from differential scanning calorimetry, illustrate that the application of the electromagnetic field induces notable changes in cellular structure. Additionally, alterations in the mineral composition within the grains are observed, leading to the formation of associates and unique crystal structures of starches. These modifications enhance the rate of water diffusion through cell membranes, thereby accelerating seed germination and promoting more robust plant growth. This research underscores the potential of using electromagnetic fields as a beneficial tool in agricultural practices.
