“…Most remarkably, the Tnt1 retrotransposon, originally identified in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum; Grandbastien et al, 1989), has been successfully used in insertional mutagenesis in several heterologous species, including Arabidopsis (Courtial et al, 2001), Medicago truncatula (d 'Erfurth et al, 2003), lettuce (Lactuca sativa; Mazier et al, 2007), and soybean (Glycine max; Cui et al, 2013). Tnt1 was used to generate approximately 12,000 independent lines that represent over 300,000 insertions in M. truncatula (Tadege et al, 2008;Cheng et al, 2011).…”
