A mutant Brassica napus (canola) population for the identification of new genetic diversity via TILLING and next generation sequencing.

A mutant Brassica napus (canola) population for the identification of new genetic diversity via TILLING and next generation sequencing.

We have generated a Brassica napus (canola) population of 3,158 EMS-mutagenised lines and used TILLING to demonstrate that the population has a high enough mutation density that it will be useful for identification of mutations in genes of interest in this important crop species. TILLING is a revers...
