Figure 1From: Nucleotide diversity of the ZmPox3 maize peroxidase gene: Relationships between a MITE insertion in exon 2 and variation in forage maize digestibilityOrganisation of the ZmPox3 gene. A) Schematic diagram of the ZmPox3 gene showing the MITE insertion in the second exon (Arrows indicate positions of the primers used to amplify the gene and to genotype the MITE insertion. Boxes represent the exons). B) Translation products (Protein from the normal allele and truncated protein from the allele disrupted by the insertion of MITE element).Back to article page
