BGS 540, Eceriferum-xc, cer-xc
Stock number: BGS 540
Locus name: Eceriferum-xc
Locus symbol: cer-xc
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
None.
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (4).
Located in chromosome 1H likely (1); cer-xc.1371 is associated with SNP markers 2_0479 to 2_1126 (positions 0.54 to 110.10 cM) in 1H bins 01 to10 of Bowman backcross-derived line BW129 (1).
Description:
Surface wax coating on the spike, leaf sheath, and stem is reduced (wax code + + ++) (4). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-xc.1371, BW129, headed two to four later than Bowman and had kernels that were 5 to 10% lighter (2).
Origin of mutant:
A sodium azide induced mutant in Bonus (NGB14657, PI 189763) (3).
Mutational events:
cer-xc.1371 (NGB 112259, GSHO 1560), -xc.1457 (NGB 112345) in Bonus (NGB14657, PI 189763) (4).
Mutant used for description and seed stocks:
cer-xc.1371 (NGB 112259, GSHO 1560) in Bonus; cer-xc.1371 in Bowman (PI 483237)*2 (GSHO 2229); cer-xc.1371 in Bowman*4 (BW129, NGB 20535).
