He–Ne laser accelerates seed germination by modulating growth hormones and reprogramming metabolism in brinjal

Abstract A plant’s ability to maximize seed germination, growth, and photosynthetic productivity depends on its aptitude to sense, evaluate, and respond to the quality, quantity, and direction of the light. Among diverse colors of light possessing different wavelengths and red light shown to have a...
