摘要
Forward genetic screens have been instrumental in deciphering the molecular mechanisms that control agriculturally important traits. Traditionally, crop mutant collections are generated by chemical mutagenesis such as ethyl methanesulfonate （EMS） treatment, physical irradiation, and insertional agents including T-DNAs and transposons （Wei et al., 2013; Li et al., 2016）.
