“…Therefore, further work is needed to evaluation of phytochemical compounds related to pharmacological activities in C. cristata irradiated plants. As reported Parchin et al (2019), gamma irradiation on Iranian fenugreek is improved the growth characters and accumulated valuable bioactive. Khattak and Rahman (2016) also reported application of the gamma irradiation on Ziziphus mauritiana which improved the level of phytochemical, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activities.…”

“…Recently, mutation breeding in the plant has been widely used to create new plant varieties ( Zhou et al 2015;Oladosu et al 2016;Jankowicz-Cieslak et al 2017). Gamma-ray irradiation is one alternative technique that advantageous (e.g., rapid, effective) to create plant mutants that potential for breeding varieties ( Atay et al 2018;Asif and Khalil Ansari 2019;Parchin et al 2019). Recent studies have been successfully recording the use of gamma rays in improving morphology and related character changes, such as Nigella sativa (Asif and Khalil Ansari 2019), Abelmoschus esculentus (Amir et al 2018), C. cristata plantlets (Muhallilin et al 2019, and apple (Atay et al 2018).…”

Abstract. Aisyah SI, Muhallilin I, Sukma D, Nurcholis W. 2019. The morphological and phytochemical studies on the effect of acute and recurrent irradiation in Celosia cristata seeds. Biodiversitas 20: 3766-3771. The present work investigated the agro-morphological changes in Celosia cristata L. seeds exposed to gamma irradiations. This study also conducted phytochemical screening to screened secondary metabolite change in C. cristata. C. cristata seeds were irradiated with acute radiation at doses of 470, 480, and 490 Gy and were planted until M1 generation. Recurrent irradiation was done on M1 seeds at a dose of 250 Gy. The agro-morphological and phytochemical diversity was performed in M2 generation. The highest difference characters in acute irradiated plants were found on plant height, number of branches, and flower length, while the plant diameter, flower width, and number of flowers were found the highest in recurrent irradiation. Agro-morphological important changes in recurrent irradiated plants were decreased plant height and increased the number of flowers that compared with acute irradiated and control plants. The qualitative phytochemical showed no difference between acute and recurrent irradiated plants. It can be concluded that the recurrent irradiated changes the morphological valuable of C. cristata, while the phytochemical is needed further research.

“…A promising technique that is recommended by many researchers to increase plant productivity is through irradiating seeds with gamma rays (Parchin et al, 2019;Volkova et al, 2020;Abbas et al, 2015 and2020). This technique increases root elongation (Melki and Marouani, 2010), shoot length (Toker et al, 2005), induces further nutrient carriers (Abbas et al, 2020), stimulates plant growth and development (Marcu et al, 2013;Galal et al, 2018), increases free radicals (Bhat et al, 2007), inactivates plant pathogens (Rajkowski and Thayer, 2001) and enhances plant tolerance to biotic/abiotic stresses (Macovei et al, 2014).…”

“…Gamma radiation has been considered a rapid and reliable method for inducing variation in a plant’s metabolic and physiological processes [ 41 ]. Hence, γ-irradiation has gained popularity in recent decades as a novel elicitation technique for the enhanced production of secondary metabolites in plant organs and cell cultures [ 42 , 43 ].…”

Background A useful technique for growing large amounts of plant material is in vitro propagation of important medicinal plants. The present investigation deals with the enhancement of secondary metabolite production via elicitation using gamma (γ)-radiation and phenylalanine (Phe) precursor feeding in callus cultures of Silybum marianum L. Results Seeds were exposed to two doses of γ-radiation (25 and 50 Gy) and the calli derived from stem explants obtained from seedlings of these radiated seeds were treated with different concentrations of Phe. The biosynthesis of phenols and flavonoids was evaluated. It was found that callus cultures derived from explants of the seeds exposed to 25 Gy γ-radiation and treated with 4 mg/l Phe accumulated the maximum phenolic content (34.27±0.02 mg/g d.wt.), while the highest flavonoid content (9.56±0.12 mg/g d.wt.) was found in callus cultures derived from explants of seeds radiated with 25 Gy γ-radiation and subjected to 1 mg/l Phe. Similarly, HPLC quantification revealed that the production of flavonoids was highly accumulated (1343.06 μg/mg d.wt.) in callus cultures from explants of seeds exposed to 25 Gy γ-radiation and grown at 1 mg/l Phe compared to the other treatments. In addition, a total of 11 important flavonoids have been determined in all callus cultures, except for acacetin-7-O-rutinoside, which was not found in the callus culture of the control. Conclusions These findings suggest that γ-radiation combined with Phe can improve the metabolism of S. marianum L. and could be used to produce such valuable metabolites on a commercial scale.
