The Ac and Uq transposable element systems in maize: interactions among components.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1992

Caldwell E E, Peterson P A

Abstract excerpt

Components of the Uq and Ac transposable element systems interact. A large sample of Ds-containing and ruq-containing alleles were tested against Uq and Ac. The Uq elements elicit a mutable response from only one of the classes of Ds elements (Ds1) in the Ac family. This response is similar to the response from ruq to Uq. In contrast, Ac elicits mutable responses from all Ds and ruq elements tested. This...
