Two methods used by breeders to increase the rate of mutation are exposing organisms to mutagens, such as radiation or chemicals, which can induce mutations in DNA, and using mutator strains that have higher mutation rates inherent in their genetic makeup. Both strategies help increase the chances of beneficial mutations occurring that can be selected for during breeding programs.
