Abstract excerpt
Transposable elements from the Robertson's Mutator family are highly active insertional mutagens in maize. However, mutations caused by the insertion of responder (non-autonomous) elements frequently depend on the presence of active regulator (autonomous) elements for their phenotypic effects. The hcf106::Mu1 mutation has been previously shown to depend on Mu activity in this way. The dominant Lesion-mimic 28...
