Favipiravir Suppresses Zika Virus (ZIKV) through Activity as a Mutagen
Microorganisms, 2023 In a companion paper, we demonstrated that the nucleoside analogue favipiravir (FAV) suppressed Zika virus (ZIKV) replication in three human-derived cell lines—HeLa, SK-N-MC, and HUH-7.

Effect of gamma rays and ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) on yield and yield attributes of Cicer arietinum in M1 generation [PDF]
Innovations in Agriculture, 2018 A study was conducted to compare the effect of mutagens on yield and yield attributes of chickpea in M1 generation. In this regard, ‘CO-4’ variety of chickpea was subjected to different concentrations of gamma rays (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60kR) and EMS (10 ...

In vivo and in vitro random mutagenesis techniques in plants
EFSA Journal, 2021 Mutations are changes in the genetic material that may be transmitted to subsequent generations. Mutations appear spontaneously in nature and are one of the underlying driving forces of evolution. In plants, in vivo and in vitro random mutagenesis relies

The Journal of Nutrition, 2003 Several lines of evidence indicate that diet and dietary behaviors can contribute to human cancer risk. One way that this occurs is through the ingestion of food mutagens. Sporadic cancers result from a gene-environment interactions where the environment includes endogenous and exogenous exposures.

Induction of Winter Wheat Plant Structure Mutations by Chemomutagenesis
Agrology, 2020 The objectives of our investigations are to describe the variation by muta-tions of stem architecture of the modern Ukrainian winter wheat varieties accord-ing to their interactions with mutagen nature, concentration and genotype-mutagen interaction ...

Mutations in Growth-Related Genes Induced by EMS Treatment in Scallops
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Background: The goal of genetic breeding is to select variants with mutations that are related to expected traits, such as fast growth. Artificial induction has been widely used to obtain strains with more mutations for further selection ...
