GENOME-WIDE IDENTIFICATION, MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION AND EXPRESSION ANALYSIS OF THE ROP GTPase FAMILY IN PEPPER (CAPSICUM ANNUUM)

摘要

To investigate the feasibility of UV-B irradiation (312 nm), seeds of Onobrychis viciifolia were exposed to fivedifferent intensities for determining the effectiveness of cellular behavior, nutritional constituents and biological activities inIn vivo and In vitro growth cultures. The atomic spectroscopy analysis confirmed that concentrations of two macronutrients(P and N) improved after UV-B exposure as compared with control plants. Near infrared radiation conducted on both In vivoand In vitro plants showed significant differences on dry matter digestibility (DMD) and crude fiber (CF). Flavonoid andphenolic compounds were increased in both growth cultures by 40% intensity of UV-B irradiation, although In vitro plantshad the higher compounds than intact plants. Increasing the UV-B irradiation intensity was also found to yield positiveeffect on anthocyanin. Observations on cellular behavior such as determination of nuclear and cell areas, mitotic index andchromosomal aberrations were proven to be essential in deducing the effectiveness of UV-B irradiation to inducesomaclonal variation in sainfoin.
