Abstract
The change in the surface properties of wheat seeds under the influence of a nonthermal atmospheric-pressure plasma jet is shown. After plasma treatment, the surface of wheat seeds becomes hydrophilic and is characterized by a decrease in the contact angle, an increase in surface energy, and an increase in seed water uptake.
