Evaluating the impact of Cold plasma on Seedling Growth properties, seed germination, and soybean antioxidant enzyme activity.

ABSTRACT: Cold atmospheric pressure plasma (CAP) has garnered significant attention in recent years for its potential applications in biomedical, environmental, and agricultural fields. Cold plasma treatment exhibits a variety of effects in agricultural applications, including impacts on seed germination and seedling growth; however, further research is required. Soybean serves as a fundamental source of nutrients for both animals and humans. Soybean seeds possess impermeable and thick testae, which results in prolonged germination times and suboptimal germination rates. The soybeans exhibit low uniformity. As a result, poor crop establishment and yield reduction are inevitable outcomes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Iranian soybean cultivars, such as Sari, Saba,
