Differential contributions of double-strand break repair pathways to DNA rearrangements following the irradiation of Arabidopsis seeds and seedlings with ion beams.

Abstract excerpt

DNA rearrangements, including inversions, translocations, and large insertions/deletions (indels), are crucial for crop evolution, domestication, and improvement. The rearrangements are frequently induced by ion beams via the mis-repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Unfortunately, how ion beam-induced DSBs are repaired has not been comprehensively analyzed and the mechanisms underlying DNA rearrangements...
