Abstract excerpt
The most frequently used method to identify mutations induced by a commonly used mutagen, EMS (ethyl methane sulfonate), in Arabidopsis thaliana has been map-based cloning. The first step of this method is crossing a mutant with a plant of another accession as it requires polymorphisms between accessions for linkage analysis. Therefore, to perform the method routinely, it is greatly preferred to use accession...
