Fig 8. Generation of stable footprint alleles by Ac excision.

Fig 8

(A) Genetic strategy to re-mobilize to recover stable germinal excision of Ac from ZmPho1;2a-m1::Ac. An individual homozygous for ZmPho1;2a-m1::Ac was crossed as male to T43. Rare colorless kernels were selected for PCR screening. (B) Colorless kernels (white arrows) highlighted among the largely 1 Ac dose progeny of a typical test cross ear.
