Gene structure induced epigenetic modifications of pericarp color1 alleles of maize result in tissue-specific mosaicism.

PloS one - 14 Dec 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The pericarp color1 (p1) gene encodes for a myb-homologous protein that regulates the biosynthesis of brick-red flavonoid pigments called phlobahpenes. The pattern of pigmentation on the pericarp and cob glumes depends upon the allelic constitution at the p1 locus. p1 alleles have unique gene structure and copy number which have been proposed to influence the epigenetic regulation of tissue-specific...
