Tissue culture-induced variation at simple sequence repeats in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is genotype-dependent and associated with down-regulated expression of a mismatch repair gene, MLH3.

Abstract excerpt

Somaclonal variation is a common phenomenon associated with plant tissue culture. Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are ubiquitous components of eukaryotic genomes, and are intrinsically unstable under various stress conditions including tissue culture. Here, we assessed genetic s...
