Soybean harvest is the main agribusiness in Brazil, which is the second largest exporter in the world and has a revenue of billions of dollars. Asian dust is caused by the fungus Phakopsora pachyrhizi and its dissemination is difficult to control, since it occurs through wind dispersion. Actually P. pachyrhizi is found in different parts of the world. Electron beam treatment could be an alternative process to minimize these losses, especially for the grains exportation industry. Besides the possibility of being disconnected when not in use, this source does not need to be reloaded, is easily available and, streamlines the process and reduces logistics costs. The present work aims to identify, by the polymerase chain reaction technique (PCR), the P. pachyrhizi fungus presence in the irradiated soybeans and the possibility to use radiation treatment as a sanitary alternative. Doses 0, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0 and 10.0 kGy (IPEN-CNEN/SP Electron Accelerator) were applied and two fast-screening methods were performed: DNA comet assay (for the detection of DNA damage) and germination test (for the measurement of roots inhibition). These tests are very easy to carry out and measure damage response depending on radiation dose.
