Molecular evolutionary characterization of an Activator (Ac)-like transposable element sequence from pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) (Poaceae).

Genetica - 1 Jan 1994

MacRae A F, Huttley G A, Clegg M T

Abstract excerpt

We present data on the evolution of the Ac/Ds family of transposable elements in select grasses (Poaceae). A defective Ac-like element was cloned from a DNA library of the grass Pennisetum glaucum (pearl millet) and its entire 4531 bp sequence has been determined. When the pearl millet Ac-like se...
