P element-mediated in vivo deletion analysis of white-apricot: deletions between direct repeats are strongly favored.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1994

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and characterized deletions arising within a P transposon, P[hswa], in the presence of P transposase. P[hswa] carries white-apricot (wa) sequences, including a complete copia element, under the control of an hsp70 promoter, and resembles the original wa allele in eye color phenotype. In the presence of P transposase, P[hswa] shows a high overall rate (approximately 3%) of germline mutations that...
