Seedlings were divided into the following groups: exposure to a 1) 1.5 W, 2) 2.3 W and 3) 3 W electromagnetic field and 4) sham exposure. A positive control was conducted. Three independent experiments were performed and in each experiment 15 root tips and 5000 cells/tip were investigated in each group by different operators.
TEM was made of copper clad FR-4 plates; the sides of the cell were left open to simplify access; tapered walls were used to join the central region of the cell, 450 mm long, to the input and output coaxial connectors; whole system was kept inside a thermostatic cabinet with a constant temperature of 20°C in the dark
