Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect The radio-protection effect of the heat shock increased as shock temperature and time increased in rice.
- Intervention effect LD50 with a 60C 2-min heat shock was about 2.5 times as high as with irradiation at room temperature in rice.
- Intervention effect Higher-dose irradiation followed by heat shock markedly increased the highest obtainable mutation frequency in heading date, culm length and panicle length in rice.
- Intervention effect Frequencies of mutants per R unit in these characters with heat shock did not differ from those in usual irradiation.
- Intervention effect The frequency of mutants in seed fertility was clearly decreased by heat shock after irradiation in rice.
- Intervention effect Genetic gain and heritability in heading date and culm length were significantly increased by heat-shock treatment in rice.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that heat-shock treatment is an effective method for enhancing the relative frequency of genic mutations versus gross chromosomal aberrations in rice.
- Mechanism The authors suggest the protective effects of heat shock may result from restricted mobility of free radicals at extremely low temperature during irradiation.
