Maize Transposable Element

We have assayed the transposition activity of the maize transposable element Ac in transgenic tomato plants that had a single copy of Ac. We found that Ac elements were in either a high or low activity state and that an Ac insertion could cycle from low to high activity within a generation. The different transposition activities were not simply due to the chromosomal position of the element, because the same Ac insertion had different levels of activity in sibling plants. Transposition activity was measured by two methods, one genetic and one physical; both assays gave similar results for each plant studied. Notably, plants with active Ac elements had progeny with amplified Ac copy number, while no amplification was detected in lines containing Ac in a low activity state. Analysis of lines with amplified elements revealed that the elements could be either clustered or dispersed. Our results were consistent with amplification being the result of transposition.Key words: Ae, transposable element, amplification, transposition.
