Abstract
For studying the effect of magnetic field on the number of capsules in each Sesamum indicum L. node, an experiment was carried out in a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications in Mashhad/Iran during 2017. The experiment consisted of three time use of fixed magnetic field as 1 Tesla (MF1 = 0, MF2 = 1, and MF3 = 10 min), and two kinds of caps as single-cap (CAP1) and multi-cap (CAP2) seeds. The results showed that the highest number of single-cap nodes and multi-cap nodes per plant were obtained from the application of MF3 treatment in CAP2 as 33.9 and 21.9 nodes, respectively and also obtained the highest numbers of capsules per plant with MF3 in CAP2. There was a significant correlation between seed weight and number of capsules per plant too (R=0.53*).
