  • Title: EMS-induced streptomycin resistance in Solanum melongena.
    Author: Rao AV, Farooqui A, Sree TJ, Ramana RV, Sadanandam A.
    Journal: Theor Appl Genet; 1993 Dec; 87(4):527-30. PubMed ID: 24190326.
    Abstract:
    Streptomycin-resistant mutations were induced in Solanum melongena by exposing seeds to ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS). Seed mutagenesis resulted in a high frequency of chlorophyll-deficient mutations and a low frequency of resistant shoots, both of which retained their resistance on subsequent testing. Reciprocal crosses between streptomycin-resistant and -sensitive plants showed a non-Mendelian transmission of the resistance trait. Streptomycin resistance is the first selectable and maternally inherited organelle marker described in brinjal.
