Abstract: | Physical agitation applied as periodic seismic stress (shaking)reduced stem clongation, leaf expansion, and biomass accumulationby vegetative soybeans. Level of photon flux (PPF) influencedthe type and extent of plant response to mechanical stress.Plant parts responded differently as PPF varied between 135and 592 µmol m2 S1. Stem length was significantlyreduced by seismic stress at 135 µmol m2 s1but this effect was insignificant at higher PPFs. Reduced stemlength resulted from an inhibition of internode elongation.Stem diameter was unaffected by stress at the PPFs tested. Incontrast to effects on stem elongation, leaf area was insensitiveto stress treatments at 135 µmol m2 S1 butwas progressively inhibited by stress as PPF increased. Statisticallysignificant reductions in shoot f. wt and d. wt by seismic stressoccurred only at 295 µmol m2 S1. Root biomassaccumulation was not affected by seismic stress at any PPF usedin this study. Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv.
