This study examined the irradiation effect of high energy x-rays on the growth of sprout plants seeds. particularly with regard to acidity, salinity and sugar content change. The experimental groups were one day old sprout plants seeds irradiated with 6MV x-rays at doses of 2, 5, 8, 10 Gy using a linear accelerator. The control group was not irradiated. After two weeks, sprout plants were grown and harvested for component analysis. The acidity of the x-ray irradiated radish and red radish groups were significantly higher than that of the control group and bok choi and buckwheat groups lower than that of the control group. The salinity and sugar content of the x-ray irradiated 5 groups were significantly lower than that of the control group and Soybean and Red radish groups higher than that of the control group. The cause of plants component change were estimated to have occurred by generate basic ions and radiation sensitivity by moisture content. Further genetic studies will be needed to confirm the correlation between high energy x-rays and the cause of plants component change.
