BGS 403, Eceriferum-h, cer-h
Stock number: BGS 403
Locus name: Eceriferum-h
Locus symbol: cer-h
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
None.
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (3).
Located in chromosome 4HS (1); cer-h.13 is associated with SNP markers 2_1056 to 2_0210 (positions 5.24 to 38.41 cM) in 4H bins 01 to 04 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW112 (1).
Description:
Surface wax coating on the spike appears absent (wax code - ++ ++) (3). The original stock has wide leaves, pointed lateral spikelets, and a high level of sterility (10 to 25% seed set). In the Bowman backcross-derived line, BW112, plants are semidwarf (about 80% of normal height) and have short, slightly lax spikes with reduced seed set. The original cer-h.13 stock may have a translocation (2), but sterility in the Bowman stock is not associated with a translocation. The kernels of BW112 plants were 20 to 30% lighter than those of Bowman; and seed yields were very low (2).
Origin of mutant:
An X-ray induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (3).
Mutational events:
cer-h.13 (trans) (NGB 110897, GSHO 429) in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (3, 4); cer-h.125 (NGB 111010), in Bonus (4); cer-h.233 (NGB 111120), -h.355 (NGB 111242) in Foma (NGB 14659, CIho 11333) (4, 7); cer-h.721 (NGB 117259) in Bonus (5); cer-h.1698 (NGB 112557) in Bonus (6).
Mutant used for description and seed stocks:
cer-h.13 ( NGB 110897, GSHO 429) in Bonus; cer-h.13 in Bowman (PI 483237)*5 (GSHO 2190); cer-h.13 in Bowman*7 (BW112, NGB 20518).
