520 _aAdvancements in technology and attitude have enabled the initial comprehensive molecular investigations of the biological repertoire of higher plants and other complex organisms. While the initial investigations are severely limited, they still provide unprecedented power and a foundation for understanding the biology of crop plants and their interactions with the environment. A key aspect of the foundation is the ability to establish valid associations between phenotypes and genes. Large-scale insertional mutagenesis with transposable elements ('gene machines') and integrated genetic maps are two elements that provide some of the necessary associations. In concert with other methods, these elements provide new options for short- and long-term approaches to understanding and manipulating complex traits such as drought tolerance.
