Pre-sowing treatment of seeds of major food crops in order to increase their yield should be carried out using safe and effective methods, which include ultra-high frequency electromagnetic treatment. The intensity of seedling development is determined not only by external factors, but also depends on the effective functioning of the photosynthetic apparatus, which can be determined indirectly by the content and ratio between different groups of basic and auxiliary photosynthetic pigments. The paper shows the nature of the effect of pre-sowing seed treatment with an ultrahigh frequency electromagnetic field on the content of chlorophylls a and b, carotenoids, as well as their ratios in seven-day seedlings of spring soft wheat varieties Trizo and Novosibirskaya 31. The general condition of the photosynthetic apparatus of the two spring wheat varieties in the control variant is the same. However, the response to the studied microwave processing modes is individual. Thus, the average power mode of 420 watts is recognized as the best mode for the accumulation of chlorophylls and carotenoids in wheat seedlings of the Trizo variety. For Novosibirskaya 31 variety of wheat, all microwave processing modes lead to a decrease in the pigment content. Under the influence of an electromagnetic field, the content of carotenoids increases, which can be considered as an adaptive protection mechanism against stressful conditions.
