Description:
Plant height is reduced to about 1/2 to 2/3 of normal, plant development is delayed, and plants are slightly yellow green in color (3, 8). Plants of the mutant sld1.a (dw-a, OUM148) headed 4 days later and were shorter, 81 vs. 122 cm, than their parent, Akashinriki (5). Kernel weights and kernels per spike of sld1.a plants were reduced and grain yields were 30% lower (5). The distribution of leaves in sld1 plants was altered because the peduncle is relatively long in proportion to the other internodes. Plants homozygous for the sld1.c allele were slightly weaker and shorter than sld1.a plants in their respective Bowman backcross-derived lines, BW861 and BW859 (2). Heading was delayed about 5 days in both BW859 and BW861. BW859 plants exhibited about 30% reduction in plant height, but had about 3 more kernels per spike. Kernel weights for BW859 were 5 to 15% lower than those of Bowman and grain yields ranged from 1/3 to 90% those of Bowman. Plants of BW861 showed a 40% reduction in plant height compared to Bowman, spikes had an average of 2 more kernels, kernel weights were 10 to 25% lower, and grain yield ranged from 10 to 75% those of Bowman (2).
