The effects of an extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELFMF) on the germination of plant seeds were examined. The decrease in the germination activity of the seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana WS kept in saturated humidity and high temperature (37 degrees C) was suppressed by the exposure to a 400 mT ELFMF.
