The architecture of intra-organism mutation rate variation in plants.

The architecture of intra-organism mutation rate variation in plants.

Given the disposability of somatic tissue, selection can favor a higher mutation rate in the early segregating soma than in germline, as seen in some animals. Although in plants intra-organismic mutation rate heterogeneity is poorly resolved, the same selectionist logic can predict a lower rate in s...
