Stock number: BGS 493
Locus name: Laxatum-jf
Locus symbol: Lax-jf

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Laxatum 253 = Lax-253 (5, 6).
Laxatum 255 = Lax-255.(5, 6).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial dominant (4, 7).
Located in chromosome 4HS (1); Lax-jf.253 is associated with SNP markers 2_0145 to 2_1558 (positions 2.58 to 5.42 cM) in chromosome 4H bin 01 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW466 (1). Based on translocation breakpoints, Lax-jf.255 was previously reported to have a weak linkage to chromosome 5H (8).

Description:

Rachis internodes of Lax-jf.255 were about 12% longer than those of Bonus (6). Spikes had a few sterile spikelets and the kernels were thin and angular (6). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for Lax-jf.253, BW466, were slightly taller and had rachis internodes that were 5 to 10% longer (4.8 vs. 4.5 mm) (4). Compared to Bowman, the Lax-jf.253, BW466, plants had slightly shorter peduncles and 2 to 4 more kernels per spike. Kernels of BW466 were of similar size and weight as those of Bowman. Grain yields of BW466 were on average equal to those of Bowman (4).
