A strategy for identification and characterization of genic mutations using a temperature‐sensitive chlorotic soybean mutant as an example Open
Screening a transposon‐mutagenized soybean population led to the discovery of a recessively inherited chlorotic phenotype. This “y24” phenotype results in smaller stature, weaker stems, and a smaller root system. Genome sequencing identifi…
