Study on Mutagenic Effect of Cobalt-60 Irradiation on Potato

[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the mutagenic effect of cobalt- 60 irradiation on potato. [Method] Potato tubers of Favorita and Zhongshu No.3 were irradiated with 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 70 Gy of cobalt-60 γ-ray respectively, to explore the mutagenic effect of different doses of γ-ray heavy ion irradiation on potato. [Result] The results showed that the emergence rate, seedling rate, plant growth, yield and commodity of potato varied after irradiated with different doses of cobalt-60 γ-ray; 10Gy of cobalt-60 irradiation played a positive effect on the growth and development of potato, while high doses played a negative effect on the growth and development of potato. After cobalt-60 irradiation, the botanical traits of M1 gen- eration varied greatly, resulting in a number of beneficial mutation traits; some traits of M2 and M3 generations became stably inherited. [Conclusion] Cobalt-60 irradiation breeding is conducive to the variety improvement and germplasm innovation as an effective means of genetic improvement for potato.

SRAP Marker Analysis of Genomic Mutation Induced by ^(60)Coγ-Ray Irradiation in Potato (Solanum tuberosum)

[Objective] This study was to explore the mutagenic effect of 60Co γ-ray on Solanum tuberosum chromosomes.[Method] The 60Co γ-ray at different irradiation doses was applied to treat the minitubers of potato variety ＇Favorita＇,and the genomic mutations in VM1 and VM2 gene rations in treatments with different doses were analyzed by SRAP markers.[Resalt] Thirty pairs of SRAP primers out of 88 pairs exhibited polymorphism with a rate of 34.1％ in the bulked selection of VM1 generation.A total of 225 bands were obtained,of which 64 were polymorphic with a rate of 28.4％.The polymorphism was reflected in the forms of deleted bands and added bands.Based on the result of the bulked selection of VM1 generation,25 primers with polymorphism were selected to scan VM2 generation.Five primers performed poorly,and nine of the rest 20 pairs revealed polymorphism and obtained nine polymorphic bands,of which only four bands were detected in VM1 generation and the other five ones were newly deleted bands.Only 9.8％ of the bands detected in VM1 generation were obtained in VM2 generation.Eventually,nine stable and dear polymorphic bands were recovered and cloned,and DNA sequences of six bands of them were acquired by sequencing.According to the comparative analysis,five fragments sequences were similar to potato chromosome with a similarity rate of 77％-89％,three of them located at the resistance gene cluster; another one fragment had a similarity of 93％ with some regions of the No.5 chromosome in tomato.[Conclusion] 60Co γ-ray irradiation can cause mutation of genomic DNA in potato;there is no significant correlation between the number of polymorphic bands and the irradiation dose; potymorphic bands are characterized by a larger number of deleted bands than that of the added ones.

^(60)Co-γ射线辐照对真空包装火腿肠低温贮藏品质的影响

为探究^(60)Co-γ射线辐照对真空包装的火腿肠品质的影响并确定较优辐照剂量,分别采用0,1,3,6,9 kGy的^(60)Co-γ射线辐照处理真空包装的火腿肠,于4℃下冷藏60 d。检测储藏期内火腿肠菌落总数、质构、色差、pH值、TBARS值、TVB-N值和感官品质的变化。结果表明,经辐照处理的火腿肠在储藏期内菌落总数均未超过国家标准,辐照剂量越高,抑菌效果越显著;随着储藏时间的延长,火腿肠的硬度值总体呈下降趋势,其中3~6 kGy辐照处理的火腿肠的硬度值最稳定;辐照后各试验组火腿肠的L^(*)初始值无显著变化,a^(*)初始值显著下降,在整个储藏期内3~6 kGy辐照处理的火腿肠的色泽保持最稳定。随着储藏期的延长,pH值逐渐下降,辐照剂量越高,pH值下降速率越小;辐照后火腿肠的TBARS初始值均高于对照组,但储藏结束时3~6 kGy辐照剂量组TBARS值显著低于其他试验组(P<0.05)。储藏过程中,6~9 kGy辐照组能显著抑制TVB-N值上升(P<0.05);辐照后火腿肠产生辐照味,导致感官评价的风味指标评分初始值下降,但能在储藏过程中延缓感官品质的下降。综上,3~6 kGy能最大程度保持火腿肠储藏期内品质稳定。

Structural modification of C_(60) films induced by 300-keV Xe-ion irradiation

The structural modification of C60 films induced by 300-keV Xe-ion irradiation was investigated. The irradiated C60 films were analysed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the Raman scattering technique, ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometry and atomic force microscopy. The analysis results indicate that the Xe-ion irradiation induces polymerization and damage of the C60 molecule and significantly modifies the surface morphology and the optical property of the C60 films. The damage cross-section for the C60 molecule was also evaluated.

Differential Expression of Retrotransposon WIS 2-1A Response to Vacuum, Low-Energy N^+ Implantation and ^(60)Coγ-ray Irradiation in Wheat

Mutagenesis and retrotransposons have a close relationship, but little attention has been paid yet to the activity of retrotransposons produced by physical mutagens. The variation of retrotransposon WIS 2-1A activity in wheat （Triticum aestivum L.） embryos at three different growth times （30 h, 45 h and 60 h） was investigated after they had been treated with N^＋ implantation in a vacuum of 5× 10^-2 Pa and irradiation by ^60Coγ-ray respectively. For each of the three growth times the expression of WIS 2-1A showed almost entirely a same trend of downregulation, upregulation, then downregulation, and upregulation again with the increase in dose of N^＋ implantation, but the expression appeared irregular with the increase in irradiation of ^60Coγ-ray. In conclusion, the acutely activating effect of WIS 2-1A stimulated by vacuum and high dose N^＋ implantation within a shorter incubation time may provide a convenient tool to advance the research on mutagenic breeding and function genes.

Primary Observations on the Influence of ^(60)Co Local Irradiation on Free Skin Flaps

Objective To study the effect of postoperative radiation on free skin flaps. Methods Twenty-nine patients with free skin flaps applied to the plerosis of the postoperative defect were followed up. Twenty-eight out of 29 patients received forearm free flaps while 1 had anterolater-al femoris skin flaps in a size ranging from 14cm×6cm to 8cm×4cm. These flaps were exposed to 60Co radiation ranging 40-69 Gy. Results Observation during irradiation, no visible changes of skin flaps and oral mucous membrane were detected, when irradiation dose was within 40 Gy; some changes may be detected over 40 Gy. Observation 1 - 4 months after irradiation: pigmentations were found in areas of erosion epidermis; skin flaps got dark but without evidence of necrosis. Observation 2 years after irradiation, rib necrosis happened in 29 skin flaps. Hairs were found on 15 of 29 flaps. Sensation occurred within the margin of 1 cm. Conclusion Free skin flap can endure irradiation at the dose of 60 Gy.

Effect of irradiation on temperature performance of dispersioncompensation no-core cascade optical-fiber sensor coated with polydimethylsiloxane film

A temperature measurement device can produce data deviations and can even be damaged in a high-dose radiation environment.To reduce the radiation damage to such a device and improve the temperature measurement accuracy in a radiation environment,a temperature sensor based on optical-fiber sensing technology is proposed.This sensor has a cascade structure composed of a single-mode fiber(SMF),a dispersion-compensation fiber(DCF),a nocore fiber(NCF),and another SMF(SDNS).The DCF and NCF are coated with a polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)film,which is a heat-sensitive material with high thermal optical and thermal expansion coefficients.In experiments,PDMS was found to produce an irradiation crosslinking effect after irradiation,which improved the temperature sensitivity of the SDNS sensor.The experimental results showed that within a range of 30–100℃,the maximum temperature sensitivity after irradiation was 62.86 pm/℃,and the maximum transmission sensitivity after irradiation was 3.353×10^(-2)dB/℃,which were 1.22 times and 2.267 times the values before irradiation,respectively.In addition,repeated temperature experiments verified that the SDNS sensor coated with the PDMS film had excellent temperature repeatability.Furthermore,it was found that with an increase in the irradiation intensity,the irradiation crosslinking degree of PDMS increased,and the temperature sensitivity of the sensor was improved.The proposed sensor could potentially be applied to temperature measurement in a nuclear-radiation environment.
