Abstract excerpt
The impala transposon of Fusarium oxysporum is an active element. We demonstrated that the imp160 copy, transposed into the gene encoding nitrate reductase, is an autonomous element, since it excises from this gene and reinserts at a new genomic position in backgrounds free of active elements. An element in which the transposase gene was replaced by a hygromycin B resistance gene was used (1) to demonstrate the...
