Description

Overview

Launchpad lines exploit the maize Ac/Ds transposition system to create a targeted insertional mutagenesis system in Arabidopsis (Landsberg erecta). Lines were mapped by clone filter hybridisation and by blast searching IPCR sequence tags against genome sequence.

Further details

They were generated by Paul Muskett and Caroline Dean at the John Innes Centre.
