Constructs for scoring somatic mutation rates. a. Construct for scoring point mutations, showing the positions and types of mutated bases in the open reading frame of the GUS gene, [32, 33]. b. Gene cassette with an inverted repeat of the truncated GUS gene [34]. c. Construct to detect frame-shift mutations [36]. d. Construct to score transposition frequency; the Tag1 element is engineered between the GUS and a CaMV 35S promoter [37]. e. A blue spot (arrow), showing functional GUS reversions after histochemical staining
