Limited tissue culture-induced mutations and linked epigenetic modifications in F hybrids of sorghum pure lines are accompanied by increased transcription of DNA methyltransferases and 5-methylcytosine glycosylases.

Abstract excerpt

In plant tissue culture, developmental disturbance and mutagenic factors are involved in channeling an individual totipotent cell to an intact plant. Comparing a pair of sorghum reciprocal F(1) hybrids with their parental pure lines revealed a dramatic difference in the occurrence of both genetic...
