Applying ionizing radiations and chemical mutagens we are now in a better condition of regulating and predicting the change of cultivated species into organisms improved from an agricultural point of view. Either this
takes place by mutation alone or by mutation as an addendum to hybridization and polyploidy. Irradiation can produce genotypes which Nature does not seem to have figured. Some induced chromosome changes, at least, have not yet
been found in nature. Ionizing radiations, administered either in a chronical or acute manner, cause both gene mutations and chromosomal rearrangements. Depending on the physiological stage and the genetical constitution of
the irradiated material, as well as on the selection technique involved, the mutation process can be changed qualitatively and quantitatively to a considerable extent. Applying chemical mutagens such as 8-ethoxycoffeine,
nebularine or myleran we can differentiate between gene-mutations and chromosomal rearrangements. Chromosome breakage can be concentrated to heterochromatic regions or special structures of the chromosomes. Under the combined
influence of ionizing radiations and chemical mutagens he terochromatic and euchromatic breaks may be reunited in a fashion scarcely visualized before. With ethylene oxide and ethylene imine the frequency of factor-mutations
- also viable and highly productive ones - can be increased 2-3 times above the highest mutation level achieved with ionizing radia tions. Considerable specificity is found in the mutability and the mecha nism of mutation in
individual loci of barley depending on the ion density of the radiations used.
