Frequency of mosaicism points towards mutation-prone early cleavage cell divisions in cattle
2016-10-09
Abstract excerpt
It has recently become possible to directly estimate the germ-line de novo mutation ( dnm ) rate by sequencing the whole genome of father-mother-offspring trios, and this has been conducted in human 1–5 , chimpanzee 6 , mice 7 , birds 8 and fish 9 . In these studies dnm ’s are typically defined as variants that are heterozygous in the offspring while being absent in both parents. They are assumed to have oc...
