Özet
Introduction Breeding studies are commonly conducted to develop new cultivars with high yield levels and improved quality traits. Chemically-induced mutations are used to create genetic variations in wheat genomes. Various physical and chemical mutagens are used to increase frequency of mutations and facilitate the selection processes. Sodium azide (SA) is largely employed to induce mutations of the genes regulating essential traits. Such mutations may also elucidate gene functions of the mutant phenotypes. Present experiments were conducted to investigate potential use of conventional chemical mutagenesis technique through SA for mature embryo culture in wheat. Methods and results Sodium azide mutagenesis was experimented with 4 treatment durations (1, 2, 3 and 4 h) and 5 treatment concentrations (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 mM). Mature embryos were subjected to experimental treatments to detect optimum doses of mutagenesis and to estimate polymorphism and genomic instability. Primarily, 50% reduction in number of regenerated plants as compared to the control (LD50) was adopted as the optimum dose. Based on LD50 criterion, the optimum value was achieved at 1 h duration of 4 mM SA concentration. Afterwards, inter-primer binding site markers were applied to investigate polymorphism and genomic instability in the regenerated plants. Conclusions Present findings revealed that efficiency of chemical mutagenesis could be improved through the use of molecular technology and such mutations may assist plant breeders in developing high-yield cultivars.
