PROGRESS REPORT ON RADIOSENSITIVITY OF BARLEY SEEDS , 1960-61

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4070727
Progress is reported in an investigation of environmental parameters affecting the radiosensitivity of barley seeds. Dath are included from studies on the relation of genetic injury to oxygen availability, the temperature dependence of postirradiation storage injury, and the relation of genstic injury to seedling height in postirradiated stored populations. The relation between chromosomal structural changes and events considered as point mutations was studied in barley. Data are also included from a study of the effects of recurrent irradiation on the seed of diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid oats and diploid barley. (C.H.)
