BGS 425, Eceriferum-zg, cer-zg
Stock number: BGS 425
Locus name: Eceriferum-zg
Locus symbol: cer-zg
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
None.
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (4).
Located in chromosome 4HL (7); cer-zg.214 is about 7.0 cM distal from the lks5 (short awn 5), ari-c (breviaristatum-c) locus (1, 2, 3, 8); cer-zg.214 is about 14.0 cM distal from the lbi2 (long basal rachis internode 2) locus (8).
Description:
Surface wax coating on the leaf blade is reduced, but only on the three upper leaf blades (wax code ++ ++ +) (6). ). Identification of the mutant phenotype was difficult in progeny from crosses to Bowman; thus the Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-zg.214 (BW163) likely does not contain this mutant depending on environmental situations.
Origin of mutant:
An ethylene imine induced mutant in Foma (NGB 14659, CIho 11333) (6).
Mutational events:
cer-zg.214 (NGB 111105, GSHO 454) in Foma (NGB 14659, CIho 11333) (4, 6); cer-zg.1195 (NGB 112083) in Kristina (NGB 14661, NGB 1500, (5).
Mutant used for description and seed stocks:
cer-zg.214 (NGB 111105, GSHO 454) in Foma; cer-zg.214 in Bowman (PI 483237, NGB 22812)*2 (BW163, NGB 21995).
