Comparison of effectiveness and efficiency of electron beam over gamma rays to induce novel mutations in mungbean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek). Appl Radiat Isot 2023; 194:110719. [PMID: 36801520 DOI: 10.1016/j.apradiso.2023.110719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2021] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023]
Abstract
Induced mutation is very useful in mungbean as it is having less natural genetic variation. The present study was conducted to induce variability through induced mutation, compare efficiency and effectiveness of gamma rays with electron beam on the basis of physiological changes in M1 generation; mutation frequency, spectrum of mutant phenotype and efficiency to produce novel mutations in M2 generation. Seeds of mungbean variety TM 96-2 were irradiated with doses of 200, 300, 400 and 500 Gy gamma rays and electron beam. On the basis of M1seedling growth, the effective mutagen dose (Growth Reduction Dose 50 i.e. GR50) was 440 Gy of gamma rays and 470 Gy of electron beam for TM-96-2. In M2 generation, electron beam treatments were found to induce greater frequency of chlorophyll mutations than gamma rays. The frequency of total mutants in electron beam (1.967) was found to be higher than gamma rays (1.343) along with mutation spectrum. The highest mutation spectrum was observed in 200 Gy dose of electron beam followed by 200 Gy gamma rays. Four novel mutants viz., four primary leaves in 400 Gy gamma rays, lanceolated leaves in 200, 300 and 500 Gy electron beam, yellow pod and yellow seed coat colour in 200 Gy treatment of electron beam were identified and isolated. Desirable mutants like early and synchronous maturity, large seed size and long root with drought tolerance were identified and isolated in different doses of both gamma rays and electron beam which were found true breeding in subsequent generations. Mutagenic efficiency of electron beam was higher in 200 and 400 Gy treatment as compared to same doses of gamma rays, while it was less than gamma rays in 300 and 500 Gy treatments. Mutagenic effectiveness was found to be highest in 200 Gy dose of electron beam which was more than twice that of the same dose of gamma rays.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122498. [PMID: 36552706 PMCID: PMC9774815 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11122498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Gamma-ray irradiation is an effective and clean method of sterilization by inactivating microorganisms. It can also be applied to induce anti-oxidants for future application. In this study, the mung bean (Vigna radiata) was exposed to gamma-ray irradiation under the dose of 0, 5 or 10 kGy. With increasing irradiation doses, the concentrations of malondiadehyde decreased while the levels of total flavonoids and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity increased. It has been shown that consuming flavonoids can provide protective effects. In addition, proteomic analysis identified several proteins having anti-oxidant activities in the 5 kGy irradiated group. These proteins are Apocytochrome f, Systemin receptor SR 160, DELLA protein DWARF8, DEAD-box ATP-dependent RNA helicase 9, ζ-carotene desaturase (ZDS), and Floral homeotic protein AGAMOUS. Our findings indicate that plants contain a variety of phytochemicals and antioxidant proteins which may effectively prevent oxidative stress caused by irradiated peroxidation.

Exogenous melatonin ameliorates ionizing radiation-induced damage by modulating growth, osmotic adjustment and photosynthetic capacity in wheat seedlings. PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2022; 187:67-76. [PMID: 35961228 DOI: 10.1016/j.plaphy.2022.07.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
As a multifunctional signal molecule, melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) plays many important roles in the regulation of plant growth and development. The effect of melatonin application on enhancing plant stress tolerance has been widely reported, but the ameliorative effect of exogenous melatonin treatment on plants exposed to ionization stress is still unknown. This study investigated the ameliorative effects of two types of melatonin treatment, pre-sowing priming (prMel) and application during growth (ptMel), in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings exposed to different radiation doses (100, 200, 300 and 400 Gy) of radioactive cobalt (60Co) gamma rays as dry seeds. The growth parameters, photosynthetic pigments, chlorophyll fluorescence, osmotic potential with soluble sugars, fructans and proline contents were then examined. The results indicated that high doses of ionizing radiation (IR) led to decreases in plant growth, pigment contents, chlorophyll fluorescence ratios and osmotic potential. However, soluble sugar, fructan and proline contents increased under IR stress conditions. Both melatonin applications, but particularly prMel, enhanced the morphological parameters, preserved the photosynthetic machinery and regulated the osmotic adjustment of IR-stressed wheat seedlings. Taken together, the findings show that exogenously applied melatonin, particularly prMel, play a significant role in alleviating IR stress in wheat seedlings.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2019; 182:109412. [PMID: 31295658 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2019.109412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2018] [Revised: 06/01/2019] [Accepted: 07/02/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Perennial plants and their associated microorganisms grow in the areas that may be contaminated with long-lived gamma-emitting radionuclides. This will induce gamma stress response in plants and their accompanying microorganisms. The present work investigated the growth and physiological responses of Epichloe endophyte infected tall fescue to gamma radiation, as well as whether the endophyte could persist and infect the host plant once exposed to gamma radiation. Seeds of Iranian native genotype of 75B+ of tall fescue were exposed to different doses, including 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 20.0, 30.0 and 40.0 krad of gamma ray from a 60Co source. Irradiated and unirradiated seeds were sown in pots and grown under controlled conditions in the greenhouse. The growth and physiological parameters associated with plant tolerance to oxidative stress of host plants, as well as endophytic infection frequency (% of plants infected) and intensity (mean number of endophytic hyphae per the field of view), were examined in 3 months-old seedlings. The results indicated that all gamma radiation doses (except 5.0 kr) significantly reduced the height and survival percentage of the host plant. Days to the emergence of seedling increased gradually as gamma doses rose. A dose-rate dependent induction was seen for photosynthetic pigments and proline content. Malondialdehyde (MDA) content grew with elevation of irradiation doses. Depending on the dose and time, the activities of antioxidant enzymes in the host plant responded differently to gamma radiation. Gamma radiation altered the enzyme activities with sever decline in SOD and CAT activities. However, it had barely any effect on in APX and POD activities. The results also revealed that the persistence and intensity of endophyte were affected after gamma-ray irradiation. The initial percentage of tall fescue seeds infected with the endophyte was 91% in un-irradiated seeds. Presence of the viable endophyte started to decline significantly (23%) at 5.0 kr of gamma radiation. A dramatic reduction in the presence and intensity of endophyte occurred at 10.0 to 40.0 kr intensities. Gamma radiation × trait (GT)-biplot analysis indicated positive correlations between the endophyte symbiosis and antioxidant enzyme activities. Also, negative correlations were observed between the endophyte and MDA content in the host plant. Our results suggest that radiation stress (doses over 5.0 kr) caused reduction in the growth and antioxidant enzyme activities of the host plant that accompanied by a dramatic reduction in the persistence and intensity of endophyte fungi. Our findings have provided the basic information for future studies on the effect of gamma irradiation on the interaction between endophytic fungi and its host plant.

Abstract
PURPOSE Environmental changes generate free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting in abiotic stress in plants. This causes alterations in germination, morphology, growth and development ultimately leading to yield loss. Gamma irradiation was used to experimentally induce oxidative damage in an important pulse crop Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek or mung bean. Our research was aimed towards augmentation of oxidative stress tolerance through treatment with a group of aliphatic amines known as polyamines. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used sub-lethal doses of gamma irradiation to generate oxidative damage which was evaluated using Nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) staining, total antioxidant activity, 1, 1-Diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, proline content and lipid peroxidation. Changes in internal free polyamines and messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression of key rate-limiting S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC) enzyme in polyamine biosynthetic pathway was studied using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULTS We observed increased oxidative damage with higher irradiation dose which was partially alleviated by putrescine treatment. Internal levels of putrescine and spermidine increased with 1 mM (50 and 100 Gy) and 2 mM putrescine treatment. Expression of SAMDC also increased with putrescine treatment. CONCLUSION This study shows that treatment with putrescine can partially alleviate oxidative damage caused by gamma rays.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the investigation was to induce somaclonal variations by gamma rays (GR), ethylmethane sulphonate (EMS) and sodium azide (SA) during in vitro organogenesis of cotton. MATERIALS AND METHODS The shoot tip explants were irradiated with 5-50 Gray (Gy) GR (Cobalt 60), 0.5-5.0 mM EMS and SA separately, and inoculated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium fortified with plant growth regulator (PGR) for organogenesis. The plantlets with well-developed root systems were acclimatized and transferred into the experimental field to screen the somaclonal variations during growth and development. RESULTS The number of somaclonal variations was observed in growth of irradiated/treated shoot tips, multiplication, plantlet regeneration and growth in vitro and ex vitro. The lower doses/concentrations of mutagenic treatments showed significant enhancement in selected agronomical characters and they showed decreased trends with increasing doses/concentrations of mutagenic agents. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study revealed the influence of lower doses/concentrations of mutagenic treatments on in vitro and ex vitro growth of cotton plantlets and their significant improvement in agronomical characters which needs further imperative stability analysis. The present observations showed the platform to use lower doses/concentrations of mutagenic agents to induce variability for enhanced agronomical characters, resistant and tolerant cotton varieties.
