Low-frequency somatic mutations are heritable in tropical trees <i>Dicorynia guianensis</i> and <i>Sextonia rubra</i>

2023-06-06

Abstract excerpt

Somatic mutations potentially play a role in plant evolution, but common expectations pertaining to plant somatic mutations remain insufficiently tested. Unlike in most animals, the plant germline is assumed to be set aside late in development, leading to the expectation that plants accumulate somatic mutations along growth. Therefore, several predictions were made on the fate of somatic mutations: mutations have...
