Abstract

The invention provides a process to prepare a recombined transgenic Zea mays plant from a transgenic Zea mays plant, wherein the transgene in the recombinant plant has an altered genetic structure relative to the genetic structure of the transgene in the transgenic plant, due to recombination-mediated transgene deletion.
