Plant genomic DNA flanking SPT event and methods for identifying SPT event
Compositions and methods related to transgenic plants comprising seed production technology are provided. Specifically, maize plants having a E6611.32.1.38 event which confers seed production technology are provided. The plant harboring the E6611.32.1.38 event at the recited chromosomal location comprises the genomic/transgene junctions described. The plant genomic DNA flanking the integrated E6611.32.1.38 event can be used to design assays that will be specific for the E6611.32.1.38 event. The characterization of the genomic insertion site of the E6611.32.1.38 event provides for an enhanced breeding efficiency and enables the use of molecular markers to track the transgene insert in the breeding populations and progeny thereof. Various methods and compositions for the identification, detection, and use of the maize E6611.32.1.38 event are provided.
1. A maize plant comprising event E6611.32.1.38.
2. Maize seed produced by a plant of claim 1 , wherein said seed comprises event E6611.32.1.38.
3. A transgenic maize plant, cell, tissue, seed, or DNA-containing part thereof comprising event E6611.32.1.38, wherein the event E6611.32.1.38 is present in a representative seed deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under accession number PTA-9158.
4. A maize plant, or DNA-containing part thereof, comprising DNA of nucleotides 2071 through 11,996 of SEQ ID NO: 1.
5. A maize plant, or DNA-containing part thereof, comprising DNA of nucleotides 2115 through 12,050 of SEQ ID NO: 1.
