BGS 113, Xantha seedling 6, xnt6
Stock number: BGS 113
Locus name: Xantha seedling 6
Locus symbol: xnt6
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
Xantha seedling s = xs (2).
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (2).
Located in chromosome 3HS (2); xnt6.f is over 15.5 cM distal from the abo9 (albino seedling 9) locus (2); xnt6.f is over 15.3 cM distal from the msg5 (male sterile genetic 5) locus (1) and over 22.0 cM distal from the wst1 (white streak 1) locus (3).

Description:
Seedlings have a bright yellow (citron green) to yellow-green color and do not survive beyond the seedling stage (2). The xnt6.f gene must be maintained as a heterozygous stock.
