BGS 404, Eceriferum-i, cer-i

BGN  41:158
Stock number: BGS 404
Locus name: Eceriferum-i
Locus symbol: cer-i

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

None.

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (2).
Located in chromosome 5HL (2, 12); cer-i.16 is about 5.6 cM distal from the ari-e (breviarisatum-e) locus (2, 13, 14); cer-i.16 is associated with SNP markers 2_0206 to 2_0449 (positions 9.61 to 154.37 cM) in 5H bins 01 to 09 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW113 (1), likely in 5H bins 08 or 09.

Description:

Surface wax coating on the spike appears absent (wax code - ++ ++) (4). A translocation is present in the cer-i.25 stock, with one of the breakpoints being close to the cer-i locus (4). Concerning epicuticular wax composition, the wax tubes are much shorter in the mutant, and the amount of two types of diketones (β-diketone and hydroxy-β-diketone) is proportionally reduced (15, 16, 17). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-i.16, BW113, were similar to Bowman for agronomic traits (3).

Origin of mutant:

An alpha-ray induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (4).
