Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a mutagenesis protocol for chrysanthemum cv. "Candid" using physical and chemical mutagens, resulting in 24 unique mutants.
  • The study found that 10 Gy gamma irradiation resulted in the lowest mortality rate and greatest genetic diversity in flower colors, while 1.00% EMS produced more viable mutants.
  • Genetic diversity among the mutants was assessed using RAPD and SSR markers, with OPA-07 (RAPD) and JH47 (SSR) showing the highest effectiveness for capturing variation, suggesting their potential use in chrysanthemum breeding.

Besides apple mosaic virus (ApMV), apple necrotic mosaic virus (ApNMV) has also been found to be associated with apple mosaic disease. Both viruses are unevenly distributed throughout the plant and their titer decreases variably with high temperatures, hence requiring proper tissue and time for early and real-time detection within plants. The present study was carried out to understand the distribution and titer of ApMV and ApNMV in apple trees from different plant parts (spatial) during different seasons (temporal) for the optimization of tissue and time for their timely detection.
