Persistence of parental age effect on somatic mutation rates across generations in Arabidopsis

Abstract In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, parental age is known to affect somatic mutation rates in their immediate progeny and here we show that this age dependent effect persists across successive generations. Using a set of detector lines carrying the mutated uidA gene, we examined if a p...
