Engelm. [Method] Buffalo grass were irradiated with 60 Co γ-rays at five different radiation intensities (1 200, 1 400, 1 600, 1 800, 2 000 Gy) to determine the related turf characteristics and analyze the mutagenic effect of 60 Co γ-rays at different radiation intensities on buffalo grass. [Result] Germination rates of buffalo grass irradiated by different radiation intensities of 60 Co γ-rays varied inconsistently, and the root length and bud length were shorter than the control; compared with the control, the height of irradiated seedlings was significantly reduced, and the number of tillers, plant height, leaf length and leaf blade width were smaller than the control; however, the stolon length, stolon diameter and number of stolon nods had no significant difference compared with the control. [Conclusion] This study laid foundation for determining the appropriate radiation intensity of 60 Co γ-rays and selecting useful mutants of buffalo grass.展开更多

The structure, morphology and magnetic properties of these nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. The radiation formation mechanism was also discussed. The results show that the absorbed dose can greatly influence the structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the products. XRD and TEM studies show that the product prepared by γ-ray irradiation (10 kGy) is pure FesO4 phase and the mean diameter of these nano-particles is about 21 nm. The Fe3O4 nano-particles synthesized by γ-ray irradiation (10 kGy) are mainly in small cubic shape and the size uniformity of these particles is good.展开更多

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.展开更多

A single dose of irradiation on head was 90Gy and 70Gy in two groups, respectively. Two h after irradiation. the threshold shift was 12. 5 dB and 9 dB, and the ACER post-irradiation amplitude ex- ceeded the maximum pre-irradiation value by 20% and 37%. Six h after irradiation, the threshold shift increased to 37 dB and the maximum amplitnde decreased to the level of pre-irradiation in 70Gy-group. In another group, right auditory bulla arca was irradiated with a total dose of 45Gy in a course of six fractions/two weeks. Fourteen d after irradiation, the threshold shift of ABR was 118 dB and the latency of wave I was longer. The amplitude-intensity curve was after irradiation. Histological observation using scanning showed that only outer hair- cells in the basal coil of the cochlea were 6 h after irrdiation 50Gy-group. Bul 16 h later, outer, hair cells in all coils of the cochlea were found to be destroyed extensively and inner cells were destroyed slightly. In 45Gy-group, 14 d after irradiation, outer hair cells in all coils of the cochlea were damaged and no inmer hair cell was injured severely.展开更多

The results show that having been irradiated by^60Co γ-rays at a dose of 3 Mrad (Si), the E-mode HEMT reduces its saturation drain current and maximal transconductance by 6% and 5%, respectively, and significantly increases both forward and reverse gate currents, while its threshold voltage is affected only slightly. The obvious performance degradation of E-mode A1GaN/GaN HEMTs is consistent with the creation of electronegative surface state charges in the source-gate spacer and gate-drain spacer after being irradiated.展开更多
