title: Transposition in plants: a molecular model.
abstract: A molecular model for transposition of plant transposable elements is described. This process may occur via excision and re-integration of the element. Excision generates DNA sequence diversity which suggests the participation of DNA repair enzymes in the healing of the donor molecule.
