title: Stimulation of nucleic acid and protein synthesis in mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) seeds by uv irradiation.
abstract: The effect of a range of ultraviolet (uv) irradiation doses on nucleic acid and protein synthesis has been studied during seed germination and seedling growth in mungbean (Vigna radiata L). The treatment of seeds with low dose irradiation were stimulative for the synthesis of these molecules.
