Effect of Triton X-100 on the Viability and Morpho-physiological Traits in Sugarbeet

The effects of Triton X-100 (TX-100) on seed germination, pollen sterility manifestation, number of chloroplasts in stomata guard cells and the viability in sugarbeet ( Beta vulgaris L.) were studied. It is was found that TX-100 decelerated seed germination of sugarbeet, changed pollen sterility man...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of Triton X-100 (TX-100) on seed germination, pollen sterility manifestation, number of chloroplasts in stomata guard cells and the viability in sugarbeet ( Beta vulgaris L.) were studied. It is was found that TX-100 decelerated seed germination of sugarbeet, changed pollen sterility manifestation, affected chloroplasts number in stomata guard cells and decreased the viability of sugarbeet seeds. The results of the present study indicated that detergent TX-100 may be considered as an epimutagene capable of changing plant genome functioning.
