Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Elevated temperatures can cause physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses in plants that can greatly affect their growth and development. Mutations are the most fundamental force driving biological evolution. However, how long-term elevations in temperature influence the accumulation of mutations in plants remains unknown. RESULTS: Multigenerational exposure of Arabidopsis MA (mutation...
