The genetics of a mutable gene at the white locus of Drosophila melanogaster.

LMOST coincidental with the rediscovery of Mendelism, genes of high sponA taneous mutation rate, often referred to as unstable, labile or mutable genes, were found. Such mutable genes, although not described as such, were identified in association with variegated phenotypes especially noticeable in plants as flower color variegation. R. A. EMERSON (1914, 191 7) from his studies of variegated pe...

Somatic inactivation and reactivation of Ac associated with changes in cytosine methylation and transposase expression.

Several metastable Ac alleles at the maize p locus were identified that produced novel pericarp variegation patterns. From the transmission analysis of pericarp sectors, we show that Ac inactivation is a somatic process. Ac excision from P and transactivation of an unlinked Ds was delayed or absent in plants with metastable Ac alleles. These decreases in Ac activity were correlated to increases...

Effect of Planting Patterns and Vermicompost on Yield and Yield Components in Maize and Beans Intercropping

Intercropping systems compared to monoculture systems can more efficiently use the existing resources which ultimately will lead to increased plant performance. Therefore, to evaluate the benefits of intercropping maize and beans and assess its impact on yield and yield’s component, an experiment was conducted in factorial design with randomized complete block design in three replication, in 20...
