Abstract excerpt
Mutant resources are indispensable for the characterization of the functions of genes. There are two types of mutants, loss-of-function and gain-of-function mutants. Recently, we have developed a novel system in plants that uses a gain-of-function approach and is named as the FOX (full-length cDNA overexpressor gene) hunting system. In this system, Arabidopsis full-length cDNAs (fl-cDNAs) are randomly...
