Abstract
Vicia faba seeds were treated with methyl methanesulphonate (MMS) and stored at 50 % water content for 0, 14 and 28 d. This water content prolongs the period between the mutagenic treatment and the onset of DNA synthesis. Storage of seeds after mutagen treatment at the selected water content led to a significant decrease in DNA damage, manifested as a reduction in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations.
