Genomic view of heavy-ion-induced deletions associated with distribution of essential genes in Arabidopsis thaliana
Heavy-ion beam, a type of ionizing radiation, has been applied to plant breeding as a powerful mutagen and is a promising tool to induce large deletions and chromosomal rearrangements. The effectiveness of heavy-ion irradiation can be explained by linear energy transfer (LET; keV µm-1). Heavy-ion be...
