Abstract excerpt
We have developed a population of transgenic indica rice lines containing the autonomous Activator transposon (Ac) from maize. A transposon excision assay using as the reporter the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene driven by the ubiquitin promoter was used to monitor Ac excision in various tissues. Our results, based on Ac excision and re-insertion events in 289 independent rice transformants, provide an...
