Uncaging mutants: moving from menageries to menages
2006
Coe, E.H. | Schaeffer, M.L.
The thousands of mutants of maize are a remarkable resource for study of plant physiology, phylogeny, cell biology, biochemistry, development, and molecular biology. Mutants are most often applied in research studies as "members of collections" rather than as select families of members relevant to the study. Ideally, biologists who are interested in particular systems will be aided by having systematically categorized descriptions that contribute toward creative mining of the resource. Some essential description parameters can be posed that include Trait(s), Part(s), Stage(s), Map Location, Conditions Externally and Genetically, and Developmental Consequences.
