The action of space flight factors (SFF) on radiosensitivity and the effects of preflight irradiation of air-dried Crepis capillaris (L) Wallr and Arabidopsis thaliana (L) Heynh seeds aboard the spaceships of the Cosmos, Soyuz and Salyut series was studied. The results have shown that vibration and...
