Caffeine potentiation of propane sultone mutagenesis in barley.
Pre- and post-treatments with caffeine enhanced propane sultone (PS)-induced growth damage in barley. The caffeine post-treatments were, however, more effective in potentiating PS-induced growth damage and caused an additive effect on the frequency of chlorophyll mutations.
