According to Ames, all mutagens are carcinogens. The UV sterilizers use UVC short wave but may not penetrate thick seed coats. Arabidopsis or orchid seeds are thin and lack opaque starches so the light may penetrate deeper. If you don't want to commit I could run some and show results.

“Compared to radiological methods, chemical mutagens tend to cause single base-pair (bp) changes, or single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as they are more commonly referred to, rather than deletions and translocations.”
“Among the radiation-based methods, γ-ray and fast neutron bombardment now supersedes X-ray in most applications. Of these, γ-ray bombardment is less destructive causing point mutations and small deletions whereas fast neutron bombardment causes translocations, chromosome losses, and large deletions. ”
