Abstract

Coriander or Cilantro (Coriandrum sativum L.), is an annual herb that distinguishes with short life cycle , it displays broad adaptation as a crop around the world , growing well under many different types of soil and weather conditions. The analysis was carried out in 2022 in the laboratories of Biology Department, College of Science under stable variables such as temperature, humidity, sunlight, grains of Coriander were irradiated with gamma rays at dose levels ( 25,50, 100 and 150 Gy) in addition to control treatment ( not irradiated ) using Cobalt ⁶⁰ as irradiation source and planted in nursery of AL-Kufa university to study the effects of gamma irradiation on the antioxidant enzymes (Antioxidant enzyme include Catalase (CAT), Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Peroxidase (POD) in addition to several biochemicals (Chlorophyll a and b , α and β Carotenes , Proline and Malondialdehyde). In sum, the results here presented show that the effects of gamma radiation of Coriander depend on the irradiation dose.
