Abstract: Seeds from three sesame lines, Yuzhi 4, Yuzhi 11, and Zheng 95-8 were irradiated by γ-ray at dosage of 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, 10.0kR, respectively. The results showed that the yield increased by 4.93%-22.30% at the low doses of γ-ray radiation. These 4 kinds of radiation doses had different effects on the 3 varieties, and agronomic characters were improved within the most suitable dosage range.

Key words: Seed treatment, Sesame, Dose of γ-ray radiation, Yield, Agronomic characteristic
