Abstract: | Abstract— Near ultraviolet (365 nm) and green-yellow (546-579nm) radiations repress the growth of liquid cell cultures of Ginkgo pollen and of monolayer cultures of HeLa. The deleterious effects of green-yellow wavelengths can be negated by red radiation; near-u.v.-induced growth repressions are insensitive to visible light photorestoration. These wavelengths do not interact synergistically and evoke different kinetics of response. |
