Title: Genetic functions required for gene silencing in maize
Usefulness: Genetic functions required for gene silencing in maize
Summary: The mutant plants with reduced gene silencing activity are useful in producing transgenic plants and seeds where the transgene remains active in subsequent generations (claimed).
Novelty: Mutant corn plants, useful in the generation of transgene active transgenic plants, comprise mutations that reduce the establishment or maintenance of paramutation
