Direct cloning of the Brassica S locus by using a P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC) vector

Gene. 1997 Oct 15;199(1-2):133-7. doi: 10.1016/s0378-1119(97)00358-2.

Abstract

Self-incompatibility of Brassica is regulated by the S locus, which contains several genes including SLG and SRK. We found that both SLG and SRK genes were located at an approx. 80-kb MluI fragment in an S9 haplotype of B. campestris. Therefore, we cloned this MluI fragment into a BssHII site of the P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC) vector. The utility of the direct cloning method is discussed in this study.
