Abstract excerpt
To investigate the activation and transposition of maize transposable elements in wheat cultured cells, plasmid DNAs containing the maize Ac/Ds elements located between the CaMV 35S promoter and a hygromycin B resistance gene (hph) were introduced into two wheat (Triticum aestivum and Triticum monococcum) cultured cell lines by microprojectile bombardment. In the first experiment, hph was activated by excision of...
