Abstract excerpt
Patterns of transposable element activity often provide useful information about how and when organisms regulate gene expression. The maize lowered Ac/Ds germinal reversion 1 (LAG1)-O mutation causes unusually low rates of germinal reversion by Ac/Ds-induced alleles even though these same alleles revert frequently and early in somatic development. LAG1-O suppresses Ds transposition at multiple, unlinked loci, and...
