Minimizing detection bias of somatic mutations in a highly heterozygous oak genome

2025-02-16

Abstract excerpt

Somatic mutations are particularly relevant for long-lived organisms. Sources of somatic mutations include imperfect DNA repair, replication errors, and exogenous damage such as ultraviolet radiation. A previous study estimated a surprisingly low number of somatic mutations in a 234-year-old individual of the pedunculate oak ( Quercus robur ), known as the Napoleon Oak. It has been suggested that the true number...
