Pre-germination plasma treatment of seeds does not alter cotyledon DNA structure, nor phenotype and phenology of tomato and pepper plants.

The impact of cold radiofrequency plasma on CPDs formation, and the morphological and phenological development of tomato and pepper plants and fruits in greenhouse conditions was studied. Quality characteristics of fruits: total sugars, titratable acidity, pH and total solids were determined. Our results show that plasma treatment in the time ranges used for pre-sowing treatments, did not cause the formation of CPDs in the cotyledons, even when the testa was removed before treatment, as opposed to high UV radiation. In addition, plasma treatment did not have a negative effect on the morphology, phenology and quality parameters of plants and fruits that grew up from treated tomato and pepper seeds in the greenhouse.

Blender (tool)

RRID:SCR_008606

Blender is the free open source 3D content creation suite, available for all major operating systems under the GNU General Public License. Because of the overwhelming success of the first open movie project, Ton Roosendaal, the Blender Foundation''s chairman, has established the Blender Institute. This now is the permanent office and studio to more efficiently organize the Blender Foundation goals, but especially to coordinate and facilitate Open Projects related to 3D movies, games or visual effects.
