Abstract

The influence of microwave stimulation of potato seed tubers on plant yield was studied in a field experiment carried out in the years 2007-2009. Various values of (2,45 GHz) generator power (100-300 W) and irradiation time (5-30 s) were applied on seed tubers of very early potato cultivar Felka Bona. A significant effect of total dose of the radiation on the yield was stated, however there was no equivalence of the same total doses applied at different levels of power and time factors.
