Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effect of radiation exposure on mutation rates is little known, especially for low doses and in situ conditions. In this study, correlations with air dose levels and DNA mutation rates were evaluated using Next Generation Sequencer for the clonal plant, Phyllostachys edulis. We collected 94 samples of Phyllostachys edulis from 14 sites with air dose rates from 0.04~7.80μSv/h. Their clonal identity was confirmed by analysis using microsatellite markers, and then, sequences among samples were compared by MIG sequence. The sequence data were obtained from 2,718 loci. In these sequences, 442 loci showed polymorphism patterns including recent origin mutation, old mutation, and sequence errors. The number of mutations per sample ranged from 0 to 13, and did not correlate with air dose levels. This result indicated that DNA mutations have not accumulated in Phyllostachys edulis living in the air doses levels less than 10μSv/h.
