DESCRIPTION:Genome-wide insertional mutagenesis is a tool to create loss-o
 f-function mutations for virtually all genes in a genome. The European mut
 ant collection BonnMu utilizes Mutator (Mu) transposons to generate insert
 ional mutations for functional genetics in maize. As such\, Mu-induced mai
 ze mutants are used for reverse and forward genetics experiments to identi
 fy and characterize novel mutants regulating various developmental process
 es. For the BonnMu kick-off study\, we constructed and sequenced two Mu-in
 sertional libraries\, covering 1\,152 Mu-tagged F2-families in B73 inbred 
 background. Insertions affected 16\,392 of 44\,117 (37%) genes of the maiz
 e genome. Downstream analysis revealed that the vast majority of BonnMu tr
 ansposons was inserted near the transcription start site of genes\, corres
 ponding to open chromatin regions. The BonnMu resource is still expanding 
 and meanwhile 70% of all maize genes are tagged.....
