Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of mutations induced by carbon ions in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Naoya Shikazono,Chihiro Suzuki,Satoshi Kitamura,Hiroshi Watanabe,Shigemitsu Tano,Atsushi Tanaka +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that carbon-ion-induced mutations are most likely nulls and that the induced rearrangements may arise through a unique mechanism, indicating that accelerated ions are a useful mutagen for both forward and reverse genetics for plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutation rate and novel tt mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana induced by carbon ions.
Naoya Shikazono,Yukihiko Yokota,Satoshi Kitamura,Chihiro Suzuki,Hiroshi Watanabe,Shigemitsu Tano,Atsushi Tanaka +6 more
TL;DR: The isolation of novel mutants and the high mutation rate suggest that ion particles can be used as a valuable mutagen for plant genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Ultraviolet-B-Resistant Mutant with Enhanced DNA Repair in Arabidopsis
Atsushi Tanaka,Ayako Sakamoto,Yasuhito Ishigaki,Osamu Nikaido,Guakin Sun,Yoshihiro Hase,Naoya Shikazono,Shigemitsu Tano,Hiroshi Watanabe +8 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that uvi1 had increased photoreactivation of CPDs and dark repair of (6-4) photoproducts, leading to strong UV-B resistance, and suggest that UVI1 is a negative regulator of two independent DNA repair systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new Arabidopsis mutant induced by ion beams affects flavonoid synthesis with spotted pigmentation in testa.
Atsushi Tanaka,Shigemitsu Tano,Thanes Chantes,Yukihiko Yokota,Naoya Shikazono,Hiroshi Watanabe +5 more
TL;DR: Reciprocal crosses between ast mutant and the wild-type indicated that ast is a single recessive gene mutation and segregates as a delayed inheritance, and the results of crossing with tt7 and ttg mutants confirmed that the AST gene is probably a regulatory locus that controls flavonoid biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
LET dependence of lethality in Arabidopsis thaliana irradiated by heavy ions.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the LET having a maximum of RBE for lethality is higher in Arabidopsis seeds than in other unicellular systems, and the most likely explanation is that the DNA in dry seeds has a different chemical environment and/or hydration state than theDNA in cells in culture.
