The present invention relates to a nonautonomous transposon gene,
autonomous transposon gene and transposase gene of rice (Oryza sativa);
and a method to transpose the transposon gene; and transformed plants by
the transposition.
The inventors examined nucleotide sequence of rice genomes and discovered
nonautonomous transposon genes, autonomous transposon genes and
transposase genes and confirmed the transposition of a transposon in the
rice cultivars transduced these genes.
