Evaluation of seed vigor and malting quality of microwave irradiated barley seed
Several barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars, grown in Fargo and Casselton, ND, in 1984, were exposed to various levels of microwave radiation to investigate their effect on seed dormancy, seed and seedling vigor, malt quality parameters and interactions with cold and room storage systems. Radi...

description |
Several barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars, grown in Fargo and
Casselton, ND, in 1984, were exposed to various levels of microwave radiation
to investigate their effect on seed dormancy, seed and seedling
vigor, malt quality parameters and interactions with cold and room storage
systems. Radiation of seeds to seven temperature levels ranging from
49 to 127°C, at a power setting of 200 watts and a frequency of 2450
MHz, was not effective in eliminating seed dormancy, enhancing seed vigor
or improving quality of the resulting malt. Seed germination and
percent of strong seedlings were the most important tests for detecting
the effects of radiation on barley seed. Accelerated aging, seedling
growth rate, malt extract yield and malt recovery values indicated that
treatments of barley seed at or below 71°C do not reduce seed vigor. Alpha-
and beta-amylase activity tests indicated that the 60°C treatment
reduced enzymatic activity and malt quality. The effects of storage
system were not significant. |
