    Transposon tagging provides an effective method of isolating plant genes by identifying a mutation tagged by a
    DNA
    insertion, and then using the DNA tag to isolate the mutant gene (reviewed m ref. I ). The first examples of this approach in plants involved transposon tagging in maize and Antirrhinum using endogenous transposons. More recently, maize transposons were shown to be active in a wide range of plant species, and in some of these have facilitated the use of transposon tagging (
