The Role of Ascorbic Acid in Growth, Differentiation and Metabolism of Plants

Part of the book series: Advances in Agricultural Biotechnology ((AABI,volume 5))

  • 56 Accesses

Abstract

Nuclear energy has been utilized in this field of biology and agriculture for the development of high yielding and disease resistant crop mutants, physiological stimulation using low doses of radiation for higher yield of crops, forages and horticultural plants, lengthening the storage period or post harvest half-life and understanding the basic mechanisms in life sciences e.g., through the radiolytic products of important biomolecules under both in vivo and in vitro conditions.
