| 2d-dige-based proteome expression changes in leaves of rice seedlings exposed to low-level gamma radiation at iitate village, fukushima. | the present study continues our previous research on investigating the biological effects of low-level gamma radiation in rice at the heavily contaminated iitate village in fukushima, by extending the experiments to unraveling the leaf proteome. 14-days-old plants of japonica rice (oryza sativa l. cv. nipponbare) were subjected to gamma radiation level of upto 4 µsv/h, for 72 h. following exposure, leaf samples were taken from the around 190 µsv/3 d exposed seedling and total proteins were extra ... | 2015 | 26451896 |
| unraveling low-level gamma radiation--responsive changes in expression of early and late genes in leaves of rice seedlings at iitate village, fukushima. | in the summer of 2012, 1 year after the nuclear accident in march 2011 at the fukushima daiichi nuclear power plant, we examined the effects of gamma radiation on rice at a highly contaminated field of iitate village in fukushima, japan. we investigated the morphological and molecular changes on healthy rice seedlings exposed to continuous low-dose gamma radiation up to 4 µsv h(-1), about 80 times higher than natural background level. after exposure to gamma rays, expression profiles of selected ... | 2015 | 25124817 |
| production of low-cs+ rice plants by inactivation of the k+ transporter oshak1 with the crispr-cas system. | the occurrence of radiocesium in food has raised sharp health concerns after nuclear accidents. despite being present at low concentrations in contaminated soils (below μm), cesium (cs+ ) can be taken up by crops and transported to their edible parts. this plant capacity to take up cs+ from low concentrations has notably affected the production of rice (oryza sativa l.) in japan after the nuclear accident at fukushima in 2011. several strategies have been put into practice to reduce cs+ content ... | 2017 | 28670755 |
