Arabidopsis research requires a critical re-evaluation of genetic tools.

Journal of experimental botany - 27 Jun 2018

Nikonorova Natalia, Yue Kun, Beeckman Tom, De Smet Ive

Abstract excerpt

HIGHLIGHT: An increasing number of reports question conclusions based on loss-of-function lines that have unexpected genetic backgrounds. In this opinion paper, we urge researchers to meticulously (re)investigate phenotypes retrieved from various genetic backgrounds and be critical regarding some previously drawn conclusions. As an example, we provide new evidence that acr4-2 mutant phenotypes with respect to...
