PLoS ONE, 2023 Replication errors influence mutations, and thus, lifetime cancer risk can be explained by the number of stem-cell divisions. Additionally, mutagens also affect cancer risk, for instance, high-dose radiation exposure increases lifetime cancer risk ...

EFFECT OF ETHYL METHANESULFONATE (EMS) AND N-NITROSE-N´-ETHYL UREA (ENU) ON CALLUS GROWTH OF COMMON BEAN [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2005 Infl uence of ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) and N-nitrose-N´-ethyl urea (ENU) mutagenic treatments was investigated on three time sub-cultured calli obtained from leaf petiole explants of 7-day old sterile plants.

Principle and application of plant mutagenesis in crop improvement: a review
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016 The first step in plant breeding is to identify suitable genotypes containing the desired genes among existing varieties, or to create one if it is not found in nature.

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic

Investigation into the dyeing of pre‐mordanted & cationised woven cotton fabric with cochineal
Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract Dyeing cotton with natural dyes typically requires the pre‐application of a mordant, which enables better dye exhaustion from solution and ‘fixes’ the colorant in the fibre. The most common application system for cellulosic fibres is a combination of plant‐derived tannins and aluminium salts, such as aluminium sulphate.

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Melanistic lesions, including non‐raised black areas due to proliferations of melanocytes and melanomacrophages in the dermis and epidermis, as well as raised black areas consistent with melanoma, are described in brown bullhead (BBH) Ameiurus nebulosus from three water bodies in the northeastern United States and Quebec, Canada.

Effect of induced mutagenesis in M1 and M2 generations of cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.)
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2023 Cumin is an important spice that has been used for centuries in various cuisines around the world. Two cumin varieties (GC 3 and GC 4) were subjected to mutation to understand macromutational modifications.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Historically cultivated for medicinal and dyeing purposes, safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) saw a shift towards widespread oilseed production after the 1920s due to the growing importance of oils. However, there is a renewed interest in its medicinal and dyeing properties today.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction of dwarfism to cereals has set a new paradigm in crop improvement programmes. To date, very little progress has been made in the development of high‐yielding dwarf/semi‐dwarf genotypes in oilseed Brassica. Previous attempts using induced mutagenesis employed in the induction of dwarfism in Brassica crops yielded limited success ...
