- Title
Effects of Non-Thermal Plasma Treatment on Plant Physiological and Biochemical Processes.

- Abstract
Another advantage of atmospheric-pressure NTP, over low-pressure NTP, is its ability to intensify plasma treatment and induce rapid changes in treated materials [[3]]. Plasma, also called the fourth state of matter, is partially or fully ionized gas. Different plasma-generation methods and setups are described, and the impact of NTP treatments on DNA damage, gene expression, enzymatic activities, morphological and chemical traits, seed germination and plant resistance to stress is considered. Overall, it can be concluded that, besides the NTP treatment parameters, the plant variety and/or seed characteristics may play a crucial role in optimizing NTP for seed treatment, as has previously been demonstrated for other plant species (e.g., [[22], [24]]).
