DASKALOV* Plant Breeding Unit, Joint FAO/IAEA Division of Isotope and Radiation Applications of Atomic Energy for Food and Agricultural Development, Seibersdorf Laboratory, IAEA, Vienna Abstract Pepper (Capsicum sp, ) is an important vegetable and spice crop widely grown in tropical as well as in temperate regions. Until recently the improvement programmes were based mainly on using natural sources of germ plasm, crossbreeding and exploiting the heterosis of F hybrids. However, interest in using induced mutations is growing. A great number of agronomically useful mutants as well as mutants valuable for genetic, cytological and physiological studies have been induced and described. Acknowledgements: The author expresses his gratitude to Dr. A. Micke, Head, Plant Breeding and Genetics Section, FAO/IAEA Joint Division and to Dr. T. Hermelin, Head, Agriculture Laboratory, Joint FAO/IAEA Programme, Seibersdorf Laboratory, for their critical review of the manuscript and valuable contributions. * Permanent Address: Institute of Genetics, Sofia 1113, Bulgaria 32/ 22 In this review information is presented about suitable mutagen treatment procedures with radiation as well as chemicals, M effects, handling the treated material in M , M and subsequent generations, and mutant screening procedures. This is supplemented by a description of reported useful mutants and released cultivars. Finally, general advice is given on when and how to incorporate mutation induction in Capsicum improvement programmes.

Some 2,000 research fellows, grad­ uate students, and professionals in business and government each year work with the Center's international staff in cooperative study, training, and research. They examine major issues related to population, resources and development, the environment, culture, and communication in Asia, the Pacific, and the United States. The Center was established in 1960 by the United States Congress, which provides principal funding. Support also comes from more than twenty Asian and Pacific governments, as well as private agencies and corporations. Kurosawa's Ran: Reception and Interpretation ANN THOMPSON AKIRA KUROSAWA'S Ran (literally, war, riot, or chaos) was chosen as the first film to be shown at the First Tokyo International Film Festival in June 1985, and it opened commercially in Japan to record-breaking busi­ ness the next day. The director did not attend the festivities associated with the premiere, however, and the reception given to the film by Japa­ nese critics and reporters, though positive, was described by a French critic who had been deeply involved in the project as having "something of the air of an official embalming" (Raison 1985, 9).

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging.

  • Shanghai, China Overview Introduction
    Shanghai, China Overview Introduction The name Shanghai still conjures images of romance, mystery and adventure, but for decades it was an austere backwater. After the success of Mao Zedong's communist revolution in 1949, the authorities clamped down hard on Shanghai, castigating China's second city for its prewar status as a playground of gangsters and colonial adventurers. And so it was. In its heyday, the 1920s and '30s, cosmopolitan Shanghai was a dynamic melting pot for people, ideas and money from all over the planet. Business boomed, fortunes were made, and everything seemed possible. It was a time of breakneck industrial progress, swaggering confidence and smoky jazz venues. Thanks to economic reforms implemented in the 1980s by Deng Xiaoping, Shanghai's commercial potential has reemerged and is flourishing again. Stand today on the historic Bund and look across the Huangpu River. The soaring 1,614-ft/492-m Shanghai World Financial Center tower looms over the ambitious skyline of the Pudong financial district. Alongside it are other key landmarks: the glittering, 88- story Jinmao Building; the rocket-shaped Oriental Pearl TV Tower; and the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The 128-story Shanghai Tower is the tallest building in China (and, after the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the second-tallest in the world). Glass-and-steel skyscrapers reach for the clouds, Mercedes sedans cruise the neon-lit streets, luxury- brand boutiques stock all the stylish trappings available in New York, and the restaurant, bar and clubbing scene pulsates with an energy all its own. Perhaps more than any other city in Asia, Shanghai has the confidence and sheer determination to forge a glittering future as one of the world's most important commercial centers.

  • Genetic Modification for Agriculture—Proposed Revision of GMO Regulation in Australia
    plants Opinion Genetic Modification for Agriculture—Proposed Revision of GMO Regulation in Australia Robert Redden RJR Agriculture Consultants, 62 Schier Drive, Horsham 340, Australia; [email protected] Abstract: Genetic engineering (GM) of crops, modified with DNA transfer between species, has been highly regulated for over two decades. Now, genome editing (GE) enables a range of DNA alterations, from single base pair changes to precise gene insertion with site-directed nucleases (SDNs). Past regulations, established according to the precautionary principle of avoiding potential risks to human health and the environment, are predicated on fears fanned by well-funded and emotional anti-GM campaigns. These fears ignore the safety record of GM crops over the last 25 years and the benefits of GM to crop productivity, disease and pest resistance, and the environment. GE is now superseding GM, and public education is needed about its benefits and its potential to meet the challenges of climate change for crops. World population will exceed 9 billion by 2050, and world CO2 levels are now over 400 ppm in contrast with a pre-industrial 280 ppm, leading to a projected 1.5 ◦C global warming by 2050, with more stressful crop environments. The required abiotic and biotic stress tolerances can be introgressed from crop wild relatives (CWR) into domestic crops via GE. Restrictive regulations need to be lifted to facilitate GE technologies for sustainable agriculture in Australia and the world. Keywords: genetic engineering; genome editing; regulation; climate change; precautionary principle Citation: Redden, R. Genetic Modification for Agriculture—Proposed Revision of 1.

  • Plant Genetics – History of Genetic Modification of Crops We Eat
    Plant Genetics – History of Genetic Modification of Crops We Eat WHAT? • Virtually all plants we eat have been genetically changed or modified by humans • This means we have been determining what genes or traits are propagated WHY? • Modifying and selecting plants that have desired traits for yield, taste, quality, texture, disease resistance, etc. benefit farmers and consumers • Responsible for half of crop yield improvements over the last 50 years HOW? • Natural mutations in genes or DNA • 10,000 years ago humans begin to select and breed crops • Crossbreeding of plants of the same species • Mid 1800’s modern genetics began with Gregor Mendel cross pollination of peas • To improve existing plant characteristics by crossing two varieties ….. • 1940s- Man-made mutations or mutation breeding using chemicals and radiation to create new plant varieties • Example: Ruby red grapefruit which is cold tolerant Source: Biofortified.org • 1980s- GMOs or genetically modified organisms: Scientists learned to copy a gene (DNA code) from one organism to another to add a new desired trait called transgenes using gene engineering (GM/GE). • 1990s first GMOs on the market • 2015- Gene editing makes a tiny, controlled, modification of a gene by editing the DNA code • Works like find and replace in word processor for specific, known genes which are modified without changing other genes Source: University of California, Berkley GM/GMO Crops: What’s in a name? • Genetically Modified Organism or GMO is commonly used to describe several terms: • Genetically modified (GM) • Genetic engineering (GE) • Biotech seeds • GMO refers a modern method of breeding that improves plant genetics by adding a gene(s) to a plant by “directly inserting” the gene or DNA from another organism into the genetic code to add a new trait such as insect or disease resistance, drought tolerance or enhance nutrition.

  • Mutagenesis for Crop Breeding and Functional Genomics
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Springer - Publisher Connector Chapter 1 Mutagenesis for Crop Breeding and Functional Genomics Joanna Jankowicz-Cieslak, Chikelu Mba, and Bradley J. Till Abstract Genetic variation is a source of phenotypic diversity and is a major driver of evolutionary diversification. Heritable variation was observed and used thousands of years ago in the domestication of plants and animals. The mechanisms that govern the inheritance of traits were later described by Mendel. In the early decades of the twentieth century, scientists showed that the relatively slow rate of natural mutation could be increased by several orders of magnitude by treating Drosophila and cereals with X-rays. What is striking about these achievements is that they came in advance of experimental evidence that DNA is the heritable material. This highlights one major advantage of induced mutations for crop breeding: prior knowledge of genes or gene function is not required to successfully create plants with improved traits and to release new varieties. Indeed, mutation induction has been an important tool for crop breeding since the release of the first mutant variety of tobacco in the 1930s. In addition to plant mutation breeding, induced mutations have been used extensively for functional genomics in model organisms and crops. Novel reverse-genetic strategies, such as Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes (TILLING), are being used for the production of stable genetic stocks of mutant plant populations such as Arabidopsis, barley, soybean, tomato and wheat. These can be kept for many years and screened repeatedly for different traits.
