Elevated Mutation Burdens in Canadian Oat and Wheat Cultivars Released over the Past Century

Modern high-yielding crop cultivars are known to have narrow genetic bases, making them vulnerable to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little is known about the extent of deleterious genetic variants (or mutation burden) present in these cultivars. An attempt was made using RNA-Seq to screen ge...
