Static MFs of 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 5.0 mT, generated by a coil, were applied to seeds. Sterilized seeds in plastic bags were exposed to the MF flux densities for one hour per day over four days. After MF application, seedlings were potted in soil and germinated under greenhouse conditions. The germination experiment was conducted over a 72 hour-period. Germination percentages increased in the 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 mT treatments, compared to the control group. The length and fresh weight of seedlings exposed to MF were greater than those of the control group (p<0.005), but there was no significant difference in mean dry weights between the experimental and control groups (p>0.005). © 2025 Universidad de Concepcion.
