Base Excision Repair

26.3K
One of the common DNA damages is the chemical alteration of single bases by alkylation, oxidation, or deamination. The altered bases cause mispairing and strand breakage during replication. This type of damage causes minimal change to the DNA double helix structure and can be repaired by the base excision repair (BER) pathways. BER corrects damaged DNA sequences by removing the damaged base and restoring the original base sequence using the complementary strand as a template.

DNA Distortion and Damage
Cells are regularly exposed to mutagens—factors in the environment that can damage DNA and generate mutations. UV radiation is one of the most common mutagens and is estimated to introduce a significant number of changes in DNA. These include bends or kinks in the structure, which can block DNA replication or transcription. If these errors are not fixed, the damage can cause mutations, which in turn can result in cancer or disease depending on which sequences are...

Primary and Secondary Growth in Roots and Shoots

60.4K
Vascular plants, which account for over 90% of the Earth’s vegetation, all undergo primary growth—which lengthens roots and shoots. Many land plants, notably woody plants, also undergo secondary growth—which thickens roots and shoots.

Area of Science:

  • Plant science
  • Horticulture
  • Plant biotechnology

Background:

  • Establishing in vitro root cultures is crucial for plant propagation and research.
  • Optimizing conditions for diverse rootstock genotypes is essential for efficient experimental models.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish successful excised root cultures for various Prunus and apple rootstocks.
  • To investigate the effects of culture conditions and medium composition on root growth.

Main Methods:

  • Successfully established root cultures for Prunus (Adafuel, Adarcias, A843, Mariana 2624, Myrobalan 605AD) and apple (Jork 9) rootstocks.
  • Varied culture conditions including medium type (liquid vs. agar), photoperiod (darkness vs. 16-h), sucrose concentration, salt strength (Murashige and Skoog), and organic supplements.

Main Results:

  • High root tip growth occurred within the first 15 days, followed by a decrease.
  • Liquid media and 3% sucrose concentration promoted better root growth compared to agar-based media and higher sucrose levels.
  • Full-strength Murashige and Skoog salts supported superior root growth.
  • Darkness benefited the Adafuel genotype, while other genotypes showed no significant response.
  • Organic supplements did not enhance root growth; sucrose was the optimal carbon source.

Conclusions:

  • Excised root culture serves as an efficient experimental model for studying plant responses to environmental and nutritional factors.
  • Controlled variations in culture medium composition significantly influence root length and growth patterns in rootstock genotypes.
