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