- Intervention effect Barley embryos irradiated and grafted onto unirradiated endosperm produced 33 mature plants among 2400 embryos, whereas intact irradiated controls did not survive.
- Observation A genetic test detected no seedling mutation in either transplant direction.
- Intervention effect X-irradiated barley endosperm tended to reduce both shoot and root growth with technique B.
- Intervention effect Thermal-neutron-irradiated barley endosperm depressed root growth only.
- Intervention effect Heavily gamma-irradiated endosperm depressed root and shoot growth in Albimonte wheat.
- Intervention effect Wheat embryo transplants onto endosperm given 1000 Kr gamma rays had strongly reduced field survival.
