Abstract excerpt
Induced mutagenesis creates novel allelic variants to improve crop yield, climate resilience, and nutritional profile. However, utilizing these mutants effectively in breeding programs requires identification of the exact genetic lesions responsible for target traits. This review covers structural DNA mapping techniques, which are divided into two primary categories, whole-genome resequencing (WGS) frameworks...
