Plants are able to perceive diverse environmental factors and form an appropriate systemic functional response. Systemic responses are induced by stimulus-specific long-distance signals that carry information about the stimulus. Variation potential is proposed as a candidate for the role of such a signal.

Phenotyping can significantly accelerate breeding; however, no reliable markers have been identified to select the most promising cultivars at an early stage. In this work, we determined the light-induced dynamic of chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF) parameters in young seedlings of 10 wheat (Triticum aestivum L.

Earlier, it was experimentally shown that short-term and long-term treatments by ELFMFs with Schumann resonance frequencies (7.8, 14.
