Abstract excerpt
The maize Bronze-2 (Bz2) gene, whose product acts late in the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway, has been cloned and its transcript has been mapped. We have developed a general procedure for reconstructing wild-type alleles from transposable element-induced mutants. An existing transposon-containing clone, bz2::mu1 [McLaughlin, M., and Walbot, V. (1987). Genetics 117, 771-776], was modified by replacing the region...
