Protection of the C. elegans germ cell genome depends on diverse DNA repair pathways during normal proliferation.
Maintaining genome integrity is particularly important in germ cells to ensure faithful transmission of genetic information across generations. Here we systematically describe germ cell mutagenesis in wild-type and 61 DNA repair mutants cultivated over multiple generations. ~44% of the DNA repair mu...
