    Localizing
    Ac
    insertions is a fundamental task in studying
    Ac
    -induced mutation and chromosomal rearrangements involving
    Ac
    elements. Researchers may sometimes be faced with the situation in which the sequence flanking one side of an
    Ac
    /
    Ds
    element is known, but the other flank is unknown. Or, a researcher may have a small sequence surrounding the
    Ac
    /
    Ds
    insertion site and needs to obtain additional flanking genomic sequences. One way to rapidly clone unknown
    Ac
    /
    Ds
    flanking sequences is via a
    PCR
    -based method termed
    Ac
    casting. This approach utilizes the somatic transposition activity of
    Ac
    during plant development, and provides an efficient means for short-range genome walking. Here we describe the principle of
    Ac
    casting, and show how it can be applied to isolate
    Ac
    macrotransposon insertion sites.
