Pharmaceutical significance of the responses of Ziziphus mauritiana Lam. to
mite-induced gall

Abstract :

Abstract Chemical mutagens are used to induce resistance against harmful pathogens in various susceptible crops to improve their yield and quality. A comparative study on the cytological and developmental effects on EMS (Ethyl Methane Sulphonate) and Gamma rays on meiotic features was made. Studies were undertaken in M3 generation Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench var of CSV-23. The results showed, both the mutagens EMS and Gamma rays induced, various chromosomal aberrations. The common chromosomal aberrations recorded during mitosis included precocious movement, stickiness, bridges, fragments and laggards. The frequency of cells with chromosomal aberrations showed a linear increase up to a certain level with increase in the concentration. 40mM EMS produced higher level of chromosomal aberrations than gamma rays.
