12-31 Establishment of a library of transposon insertions and associated insertion sequences in Arabidopsis. Several lines have been used for the production of insertions.
Molecular analysis shows that insertions are unique and largely independent.
DNA and seeds of plants carrying new insertions are harvested in pools of 50. We have so far collected approximately 6000 plants. In addition, we have started sytematic sequencing of DNA flanking the insertions.
