Description: A colour-first toolkit for the statistical analysis of
        induced mutagenesis experiments in crop plants. It fits
        dose-response models to physical and chemical mutagen data and
        estimates the median lethal and growth-reduction doses (LD50,
        GR50) with confidence intervals obtained from Fieller's
        theorem; quantifies first-generation biological damage
        (lethality, injury and pollen sterility); and estimates
        mutagenic effectiveness and mutagenic efficiency. Effectiveness
        and efficiency are conventionally reported as point estimates
        only; this package treats them as functions of binomial
        proportions and supplies interval estimates by the delta method
        on the logarithmic scale and by the nonparametric bootstrap. It
        further provides chlorophyll mutation spectrum analysis with
        tests of homogeneity and diversity, generalised linear models
        for second-generation mutant counts with formal assessment of
        overdispersion, and formal comparison of mutagens including
        relative biological effectiveness. Every analysis returns a
        tidy result object and a publication-ready 'ggplot2' figure.
