Apple bud sports are spontaneous mutations that can lead to new apple varieties. These mutants have different traits like fruit color and maturation time compared to their parent plants. Scientists have studied these mutations and found that they are caused by changes in the genes and how they are regulated. This research helps in developing new apple cultivars more quickly and efficiently.
