Maize plants with reduced gene silencing
- 详细技术说明

- *Abstract
-
This invention relates to genes and methods to control eukaryotic mechanisms responsible for both the genesis and maintenance of heritable phenotypic variation. Paramutations represent specific types of epigenetic alterations that can be stably inherited without altering the DNA sequence. Several genes are known to be involved in regulating the paramutant state in maize plants. It is currently thought that these allelic interactions cause structural alterations to the chromatin. This invention relates to the use of the rmr1 gene for reducing or mitigating gene silencing in a transgenic maize plant and also to reduce or mitigate inbreeding depression
