Plant mobile genetic elements and their application in genetics and biotechnology

Review 

TSitologiia i genetika 2006, v 40, Issue 4, 68-80

Data concerning plant transposable elements and their contribution to plant genome evolution are reviewed. Much attention is focused on utilization of transgenic plants as heterologous hosts of transposons for investigation of transposition mechanisms and gene cloning. Probable ways of the use of plant transposons as genetic tools in biotechnology are discussed.
