Comparison and Characterization of Mutations Induced by Gamma-Ray and Carbon-Ion Irradiation in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Using Whole-Genome Resequencing

Gamma-rays are the most widely used mutagenic radiation in plant mutation breeding, but detailed characteristics of mutated DNA sequences have not been clarified sufficiently. In contrast, newly introduced physical mutagens, e.g., heavy-ion beams, have attracted geneticists’ and breeders’ interest a...
