Abstract
The research in this paper were conducted to presents the impact of magnetically treated water on the seeds germination of narrow-leaf lupine, and next on morphological diversity of seedlings in their early stages of development. The magnetic water treatment was conducted by means of a measuring system where the water flowed through a teflon tube placed between direct current electromagnet pole pieces. Water was passed between the electromagnet pole pieces for induction of direct current electromagnet field pieces B = 100 mT, 300 mT, 600 mT i 900 mT. The highest germination capacity of lupine seeds was reached after using induction of 300 mT. This same induction of magnetically treated water additionally improved the values of root/shoot ratio, stimulated seedling weight and number of leaves. The obtained results for the laboratory experiments may also have importance for the later development stages of plant, so it important to continue resarches with influence of magnetically treated water for growth and yield of plant on the field condition.
