BGS 412, Eceriferum-t, cer-t

BGN  41:164
Stock number: BGS 412
Locus name: Eceriferum-t
Locus symbol: cer-t

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

None.

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (4), except Cer-t.977 (11).
Located in chromosome 5HL (2, 13); cer-t.22 is about 9.4 cM proximal from the var1 (variegated 1) locus (2, 14, 15, 16); cer-t.22 is about 8.5 cM distal from the cer-zp (eceriferum-zp) locus (15, 16); cer-t.22 is associated with SNP markers 2_0884 to 2_1077 (positions 210.59 to 223.57 cM) in 5H bin 11 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW123 (1), in 5H bin 11.

Description:

Surface wax coating on the spike appears greatly reduced or absent (wax code +/- ++ ++) (4). Concerning the chemical epicuticular wax composition on the spike, the amount of the β-diketones and hydroxy-β-diketones is reduced and the alkan-2-ol containing esters are absent. The wax tubes are much shorter than in the wild type (17, 18). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-t.22, BW123, were similar to Bowman in agronomic traits, expect plants were 10% shorter and grain yields were slightly lower (3).

Origin of mutant:

A gamma-ray induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (2).
