CAN-TILL Projects

The major CAN-TILL project at this time is focussed on the oilseed crop Brassica napus. Our population of 1536 B. napus mutant lines is now available for screening.

In the future, we also hope to use this technique for reverse genetics in other crop species such as Camelina sativa, flax and safflower. We also envision using Ecotilling to identify natural genetic variation in species where this might be useful.

Past projects include Ecotilling in Populus trichocarpa (black cottonwood), and TILLING in Arabidopsis, the vegetable crop Brassica oleracea, and in the soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
