BGS 353, Glossy sheath 3, gsh3

BGN  41:143
Stock number: BGS 353
Locus name: Glossy sheath 3
Locus symbol: gsh3

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Glossy sheath 3 = gs3 (22).
Eceriferum-a = cer-a (6, 19).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (6, 16).
Located in chromosome 7HS (3, 16, 21, 22); gsh3.i is about 2.1 cM proximal from the fch12 (chlorina seedling 12) locus (18); and 6.5 to 12.9 cM proximal from the brh1 (brachytic 1) locus (17, 18, 20); gsh3.i is associated with SNP markers 1_0498 to 2_1144 (positions 81.43 to 113.28 cM) in 7H bin 02 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW406 (1), in 7H bin 02.

Description:

Surface wax coating appears absent on the spike, leaf sheath, and stem (wax code - - ++) (6, 16, 22). Based on the chemical epicuticular wax composition, only traces of the β-diketone wax classes and alkan-2-ol containing esters occur in the cer-a.6 mutant of Bonus (23, 24). A reduction in the long-chain n-alkanes occurs in the cer-a.6 mutant without affecting the chain-length distributions of the minor hydrocarbons (25). Compared to Bowman, the Bowman backcross-derived line with gsh3.i, BW406, had slightly small kernels that weighed 10 to 20% less. The grain yields of BW406 were 1/2 to 2/3 those of Bowman (4).

Origin of mutant:

A radiation induced mutant in Mars (CIho 7015) (16, 21, 22); an X-ray induced mutant in Maja Abed (NGB 8815, PI 184884) (6).
