ChinaMu is a publicly available and high mutation frequencies collection that can be used for both forward and reverse genetic approaches. We used active-Mu lines and B73 inbred line to create the collection containing inheritable Mu insertions, and combined the improved Mu-Illumina sequencing approach with bioinformatics analysis to obtain the flanking sequence database. Our current dataset already covered about 71.50% total genes in maize genome. We will keep updating all the information related to the mutants.
