The progressive application of electromagnetic fields (EMF) in science, industry, and medicine has raised doubts about the biological effects of this field. With regard to the importance of biological effects of EMF, present study has focused on the evaluation of the effects of static magnetic field on vegetative phase and growth of shoot apex of Chick pea (Cicer arietinum). The plants at vegetative stages were treated with a 30 mT static magnetic field for 5days, each day 5 hour. At the same time, control plants were grown in the same place but out of the field. Morphological studies were achieved after the samples were harvested and fixed in FAA, followed by serial sectioning. Staining procedures were accomplished by hematoxylen -eosin and Methyl green- Pyronin methods. According to the results of present study, the above-mentioned magnetic field increased the whole volume of the apex, numbers of tunica layers, number of flowers, and proliferation of the lateral fragments were also observed. Key words: Chick pea, (Cicer arietinum), Lipid peroxidation, Lignin, Magnetic field, Shoot apex, Vegetative growth phase
