What is Gamma Irradiation Effects on Zea Mays Growth about?

The document studied the effect of varying dosages of gamma irradiation on the growth of Zea mays (corn). Corn seeds were irradiated with dosages of 10 krad, 30 krad, and 50 krad while a control group received no irradiation. Higher dosages resulted in lower germination rates and plant heights. The 10 krad dosage produced the tallest plants and 100% germination, while the 50 krad dosage produced the shortest plants and only 60% germination. Higher gamma irradiation dosages were more detrimental to corn grow
