Abstract excerpt
Three new dominant suppressor mutations of the C1 transcription regulator gene in maize--C1-I delta 1, C1-I delta 2 and C1-I delta 3--are described that suppress anthocyanin colouration in kernels similar to the function of the C1-I standard inhibitor. The C1-I delta mutations were induced by imprecise excision of an En/Spm transposon in the third exon of the C1 gene. These transposon footprints cause a...
