Abstract excerpt

Young inflorescence-bearing cuttings of Tradescantia clone BNL 02, a blue/pink heterozygote, were treated with thermal neutrons for 12-120 s in the Irradiation Tube set in the Heavy Water Facility of the KUR Reactor of the Research Reactor Institute, Kyoto University. In this facility, practically all components of the neutron flux were thermal neutrons. The thermal neutron fluxes measured simultaneously with...
