Abstract excerpt
Germinal and somatic excision products of Mu1 from the insertion allele bz::mu1 were selectively amplified from maize cob tissue. The sequence of these "footprints" often included deletions at the target site, suggesting that substantial exonucleolytic degradation occurs upon excision of the elem...
