Dissecting DNA Damage Responses in Arabidopsis: A High-Throughput Sequencing Approach

Creator:: Brar, Anantnoor
Abstract:: A unique, permanent root-growth arrest phenotype was observed in UV-B irradiated Arabidopsis thaliana roots lacking the DNA damage response kinase ATR. Segregation analysis suggests the dependence of this phenotype on another, unidentified gene, termed ursu. High-throughput sequencing technologies were used to map and identify the causal ursu mutation. Illumina HiSeq...
