Selection of Variants with High Levels of Biotin from Cultured Green Lavandula vera Cells Irradiated with Gamma Rays
Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Kyoto University Kyoto 606, Japan
Cultured green Lavandula vera cells were irradiated with various dosages of gamma rays which increased the variation in the amount of free biotin produced by the cell clones. Variant sublines containing much more free biotin than the original line were obtained by repeated selection. The effectiveness of gamma rays for the induction of the variant sublines is described.
