Fruit Crop Improvement with Genome Editing, In Vitro and Transgenic Approaches

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Fruit species contribute to nutritional and health security by providing micronutrients, antioxidants, and bioactive phytoconstituents, and hence fruit-based products are becoming functional foods presently and for the future.

A systematic review on physical mutagens in rice breeding in Southeast Asia [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
In the 1920s, Lewis Stadler initiated the introduction of permanent improvements to the genetic makeup of irradiated plants. Since then, studies related to breeding mutations have grown, as efforts have been made to expand and improve crop productivity ...

Field Evaluation and Molecular Analysis of Three Early Flowering Canola Mutants under Natural Salinity-Stressed Environment [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Chemistry and Biotechnology, 2019
Mutagenesis is a good way to create new plant lines having desirable traits. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate three gamma ray-induced early flowering canola mutants, their parent (Serw4) and chick verity (Serw6). Some agronomic traits were

Induced mutations for studying Mendelian inheritance

open access: yesJournal für Kulturpflanzen, 2022
All genetic variation results from mutations. Orders of magnitude can increase mutation rates by applying irradiation or chemical treatment. Genome editing offers new perspectives for mutation induction because mutation sites can be precisely targeted ...

Gamma ray induced genetic improvement of sorghum landraces for grain yield and charcoal rot tolerance

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2018
Sorghum is an important cereal crop used for food, livestock feed and biofuel. In order to improve rabi sorghum (post-rainy season), which are mainly used for human consumption, physical and chemical mutagens are used to create genetic variability for ...

Gain-of-function oncogenic mutations in TP53 enhance defined factor-mediated cellular reprogramming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cancer is a disorder with various genetic and epigenetic alterations. Genetic alterations such as mutations, i.e., substitutions, amplifications, and deletions of nucleotide sequences, are largely irreversible, whereas epigenetic alterations can be ...

Genetic Variability Induced by Gamma Rays and Preliminary Results of Low-Cost TILLING on M2 Generation of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
In order to increase genetic variability for chickpea improvement, the Kabuli genotype, variety Ghab4, was treated with 280 Grays of gamma rays (Cobalt 60). Field characterization began with the M2 generation.
