Abstract

The study of the effect of different doses of $\gamma$-irradiation on the growth and development of seedlings of soft wheat seeds, resistance, and germination of seeds to irradiation has been carried out. The data show that the seeds of common wheat are resistant to ionizing radiation and up to 80% of the seeds remained viable. Under the influence of ionizing radiation, the functional and mitotic activity of the cell nucleus is disrupted, which has a significant effect on the growth parameters of the seedlings of irradiated seeds.
