Abstract excerpt

Paramutation is the transfer of mitotically and meiotically heritable silencing information between two alleles. With paramutation at the maize (Zea mays) booster1 (b1) locus, the low-expressed B' epiallele heritably changes the high-expressed B-I epiallele into B' with 100% frequency. This requires specific tandem repeats and multiple components of the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway, including the...
