[Biological effect of vibration on plants].
The biological effect of vibration of Lactuca sativa dry seeds and seedlings cultivated at optimal (20 degrees C) and suboptimal (4 degrees C) temperatures was studied. The effect of vibration slightly depended on its frequency (500-2000 Hz). However, plant sensitivity to the exposure was related to their physiological state. Vibration-induced disorders were transient, i.e. they returned to the normal rapidly enough.
