The viviparous-1 (vp) gene of maize blocks the normal arrest of            embryo development, thereby causing precocious germination of the seed          on the mother plant.  The objectives of this proposal are to 1) isolate         the vp gene by transposon tagging and determine its molecular structure         and 2) identify the vp gene product by making antibody to a synthetic           peptide derived from the gene sequence.                                              Dr. McCarty's goal to clone the vp gene is very important for the          study of developmental gene regulation and seed development in maize.           The findings generated by this work will clearly set the stage for              significant future work.
