BGS 569, Erectoides-y, ert-y
Stock number: BGS 569
Locus name: Erectoides-y
Locus symbol: ert-y
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
Erectoides-69 = ert-69 (2).
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (1).
Location is unknown.
Location is unknown.
Description:
Plants of ert-y.69 had slightly denser spikes than the parent with an average rachis internode length value of 2.8 mm. Culm length is about 5/6 of normal (2). The mutant phenotype was not observed in crosses to Bowman (1).
