The Rate and Molecular Spectrum of Spontaneous Mutations in Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: This work searched for de novo spontaneous mutations in the complete nuclear genomes of five Arabidopsis thaliana mutation accumulation lines that had been maintained by single-seed descent for 30 generations, and identified and validated 99 base substitutions and 17 small and large insertions and deletions.
Book

Arabidopsis : a laboratory manual

TL;DR: This chapter discusses how to transform Arabidopsis, how to isolate a gene defined by a mutation, and how to study gene function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of a Xenopus homolog of Brachyury (T) is an immediate-early response to mesoderm induction.

TL;DR: This paper describes the cloning and expression of a Xenopus homolog of Brachyury, Xbra, and shows that expression of Xbra occurs as a result of mesoderm induction in Xenopus, both in Response to the natural signal and in response to the Mesoderm-inducing factors activin A and basic FGF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-genome sequencing of multiple Arabidopsis thaliana populations

TL;DR: The majority of common small-scale polymorphisms as well as many larger insertions and deletions in the A. thaliana pan-genome are described, their effects on gene function, and the patterns of local and global linkage among these variants.
