Somaclonal variation is induced de novo via the tissue culture process: a study quantifying mutated cells in Saintpaulia.
<h4>Background</h4>The origin of somaclonal variation has not been questioned previously, i.e., "pre-existing mutations" in explants and "newly induced mutations" arising from the tissue culture process have not been distinguished. This is primarily because there has...
