Ultraviolet Damage to Canola Plants: Macroscopic and Microscopic Observations
| Division: | Physical & Mathematical Sciences / None | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Southeast Saskatchewan | | City: | Avonlea, SK | | School: | Avonlea School | | Abstract: | We explored the effects of ultraviolet light on canola plants. We grew a control and a UV exposed sample. We took our research to the Canadian Light Source in Saskatoon and observed macroscopic and microscopic differences between the two samples.
