BGS 551, Breviaristatum-f, ari-f

BGN  41:182
Stock number: BGS 551
Locus name: Breviaristatum-f
Locus symbol: ari-f

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Breviaristatum-21 = ari-21 (3, 4).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (4).
Located in chromosome 7H (1); ari-f.21 is associated with SNP markers 1_0721 to 1_1343 (positions 82.82 to 134.43 cM) in 7H bins 06 to 08 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW044 (1).

Description:

Awns are thin and often 1/2 to 3/4 normal length, and awn length decreases toward the top of the spike. Spikes are more lax and have fewer rachis internodes than those of parental cultivars. Deformation of the lemma apex causes apical kernels to be naked (4). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for ari-f.21, BW044, were 15 to 25% shorter than Bowman and had awns that extended 4 cm beyond the tip of the spike vs. 11 to 12 cm for Bowman. Kernels of BW044 were shorter, 8.6 vs. 9.6 mm, and thinner, 3.3 vs. 3.8 mm, than those of Bowman and weighed 40% less, 3.5 vs. 5.8 mg. The grain yields of BW044 ranged from very little to 20% those of Bowman (2).

Origin of mutant:

An X-ray induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (2).
