Mutagenic potential of cadmium nitrate [Cd(NO3)2] and ethyl-methane sulphonate [EMS] in quantitative and cyto-physiological characters of Capsicum annum L. cultivars

From the population raised from gamma irradiated seeds at different doses (100, 200 and 300 Gy), at 100 Gyphenotypically dissimilar plant (from the control plants) was isolated. The plant was shorter and morphologically weaker in contrast to control population. The cytological studies were carried out in a plant showed segmental exchanges between heterologous chromosomes. Chromosomal associations in rings and chains along with bivalents and univalents were observed in pollen mother cells (PMCs) during microsporogenesis. Various anaphasic anomalies were also taken into account including chromatid bridges, laggards and unequal separations etc. Subsequent stages of meiosis were also found to be highly intermittent. Owing to the high frequency of chromosomal aberrations, pollen fertility in control (96.32%) were efficaciously reduced to 38.26% at dose of 100Gy. The present study has been conducted to assess cytological behavior of the induced translocation heterozygote which is first time induced through gamma irradiation in the Artemisia annua L.

Stachys inflata Benth. belonging to Lamiaceae, grows in the vicinity of zinc and lead mine around Zehabad village, Qazvin Province, Iran. The aim of this study is to determine how S. inflata is affected by a long-term exposure to zinc and lead pollutants. The focus, here, is on how the meiotic behaviour of pollen mother cells as well as pollen fertility are affected by heavy metal pollutants. ICP-MS analyses of soil and water samples indicated the presence of lead and zinc in a concentration much higher than the recommended standard. The results revealed that soil and water polluted by heavy metals had a significant impeding effect on the division of PMCs in S. inflata. An elevated meiosis abnormality rate, as well as decreases in meiotic index and in pollen fertility were observed compared to the control. The data indicate that this species is not meiotically stable. In general, the pollen mother cells of specimen grown in polluted soil exhibited an increased incidence of chromosome stickiness, B-chromosomes, chromosome bridges, laggard chromosomes, micronucleus, desynapsis, cytomixis and formation of tripolar and pentapolar cells.

Aim: To evaluate the effects of radiation on oil and fatty acid content of cumin by irradiating seeds with varied doses of gamma rays viz.,100 Gy, 125 Gy, 150 Gy, 175 Gy. Study Design: Oil and fatty acid content was estimated by gas chromatography mass spectroscopy. Results: The result reveals that oil and fatty acid quantity were significantly changed upon radiation. Oil amount was increased in irradiated seeds whereas fatty acid content was decreased except petroselinic acid and linoleic acid which was increased in comparison to control. In contrast to non irradiated seeds, the lowest dose of gamma found beneficial as oil content and majority of fatty acids were increased. Conclusion: Therefore, irradiation of cumin seeds for protection and preservation purpose could significantly affect the fatty acid content of cumin as seeds are prone to fungal infections.
