Abstract excerpt
SUMMARY: The coding sequences of Cre (site-specific recombinase from bacteriophage P1) and FLP (yeast 2-microm plasmid site-specific recombinase) were fused in frame to produce a novel, dual-function, site-specific recombinase gene. Transgenic maize plants containing the Cre::FLP fusion expression vector were crossed to transgenic plants containing either the loxP or FRT excision substrate. Complete and precise...
