  ABSTRACT: The laser induced fluorescence (LIF) spectra from plants give accurate information on the influences of ultraviolet A (UV-A) and ultraviolet B (UV-B) radiation on the growth of maize plants. In this paper, a thorough LIF study has been done on maize plants grown under controlled conditions. The maize (Zea mays) seeds were planted and exposed to UV-A and UV-B radiation from 0 to10 hours. The decrease in the ratios of peaks of LIF confirm a decrease in the height, diameter of stem, number of leaves in the plants exposed to UV-B and UV-A with the increase in the time of exposure.
