“…Seed stocks were of the mutant erecta of the ecotype "Landsberg" (Redei [ 15]). The mutants used in these experiments were: V131, a non-leaky pyrimidine auxotrophic line carrying the mutation py (described by Feenstra [5]), and B25, a nitrate reductase-less line carrying a mutation of the gene rgn (described by Braaksma and Feenstra [2]; Feenstra and Braaksma [6]; Braaksma and Feenstra, in preparation).…”

It was a sunny afternoon in early autumn of 1985. I was in the middle of processing my regular plasmid preps, when a distinguished gentleman accompanied by his wife entered our lab at the Max-Planck Institute in Cologne. He wore a moustache that accented his smile and had a neatly trimmed round beard, a splendid grey suit and an attractive necktie. He asked me in formal, polite English about the availability of my boss and friend, the late Professor Jeff Schell. Upon introducing himself, he probably noticed a familiar accent in my answer because he immediately turned the conversation to Hungarian, my mother tongue. Indeed, I was astonished. George Rédei, the legendary geneticist of Arabidopsis, stood in front of me saying that he would spend his sabbatical with us, fulfilling the invitation of Jeff Schell. As a young undergraduate, I saw him once at a congress in Szeged (Hungary), where in 1974 he disproved Ledoux's infamous DNA transformation studies, which caused much controversy in plant science during the early 1970s. Ledoux, a well-known researcher at that time, reported in Nature that he accomplished genetic complementation of Rédei's thiamine auxothrophic Arabidopsis mutants with transducing lambda phage DNAs carrying the thi locus of E. coli (Ledoux et al. 1974).
