In our transgene-based system, the silencer loci GFP-COP1 C73 and C97 underwent an apparently spontaneous transition in their silencing behavior between the T2 and T3 generations (Fig.
These include 1) the strength of the 3' and 5' splice sites, which can be calculated using the consensus values that were determined by Shapiro and Senepathy [ 5 ] or by the Splice Site Prediction program by Neural Networks (SSPNN, http://www.fruitfly.org/seq_tools/splice.html) which takes more known sequences into account, 2) the branch point sequences and 3) certain sequences such as exonic splicing enhancers (ESE) that can activate the use of a weak 3' splice site or elements such as exonic splicing silencer elements (ESS) that inhibit splicing [ 1 ] . In addition to these cis -acting elements, exon length [ 6 ] and secondary structure have also been mentioned to play a role in splicing [ 7 ] .
Trans-silenced L91' and E82' plants that lacked the C73 silencer locus ('prime'-label) were crossed in pairwise combinations with naive E82 and L91 plants.
A diagnostic PCR assay was developed for the L91, E82, and C73 loci to unambiguously identify F2 segregants containing a trans-silenced L91 or E82 target locus but lacking the C73 silencer locus (Fig.
Note that PTGS is often homozygosity-dependent [ 29 ] . The trans-silencing of the PTGS loci L91 or E82 by the C73 silencer locus is most easily apparent by the loss of the typical cop1- like cosuppressionphenotype (Fig.
