Abstract excerpt
The null wx-ml allele contains a 409-bp Dissociation 1 (Ds1) element in exon 9 of the maize waxy (Wx) gene. In the absence of the autonomous Activator (Ac) element, the Ds1 element cannot transpose, and this allele encodes several Wx transcripts that arise following alternative splicing of Ds1 sequences from Wx pre-mRNA. Splicing involves the utilization of three 5' splice sites and three 3' splice sites. All but...
