THE INFLUENCE OF B CHROMOSOMES ON THE SUSCEPTIBILITY OF MAIZE TO GAMMA IRRADIATION INDUCED DNA DAMAGE (RECOMBINATION).

Tests were conducted to ascertain whether B chromosomes influence the susceptibility of maize (Zea mays L.) plants to gamma-radiation-induced DNA damage. Isogenic stocks of Black Mexican sweet corn with and without B chromosomes were premeiotically irradiated and DNA damage was assayed by measuring...
