Transmissible and Nontransmissible Mutations Induced by Irradiating Arabidopsis thaliana Pollen With γ-Rays and Carbon Ions
Ken Naito,Makoto Kusaba,Naoya Shikazono,Toshiya Takano,Atsushi Tanaka,Takatoshi Tanisaka,Minoru Nishimura +6 more
TL;DR: Comparison of the deleted regions in the mutants showing various manners of transmission suggests that the nontransmissibility of the large deletions may be due to the deletion of a particular region that contains a gene or genes required for gamete development or viability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruption of the AtREV3 Gene Causes Hypersensitivity to Ultraviolet B Light and γ-Rays in Arabidopsis: Implication of the Presence of a Translesion Synthesis Mechanism in Plants
Ayako Sakamoto,Vo Thi Thuong Lan,Vo Thi Thuong Lan,Yoshihiro Hase,Naoya Shikazono,Tsukasa Matsunaga,Atsushi Tanaka +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that UV light-damaged DNA interrupted DNA replication in the rev3-1 mutant, leading to the inhibition of cell division and root elongation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Radiation Tolerance Based on the Induction of DNA Double-Strand Breaks in Tobacco BY-2 Cells and CHO-K1 Cells Irradiated with Gamma Rays
Yuichiro Yokota,Yuichiro Yokota,Naoya Shikazono,Atsushi Tanaka,Yoshihiro Hase,Tomoo Funayama,Seiichi Wada,Masayoshi Inoue +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the radiation tolerance of BY-2 cells appears to be due not only to a lower induction of DNA damage but also to a more efficient repair of the induced DNA damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
An ion beam-induced Arabidopsis mutant with marked chromosomal rearrangement.
TL;DR: An Arabidopsis mutant possessing an abnormal genetic trait showed that ion beams could induce marked genomic alterations, and could possibly lead to the generation of novel plant species and crop strains.

Method of gene transfer into pollen by ion beam irradiation
TL;DR: A specific gene or DNA can be directly transferred into the pollen of a plant by selectively irradiating the shell of the pollen with ion beams without affecting the cell nucleus and thereafter immersing the irradiated pollen in a solution containing the specific genes or DNA of interest.
