BGS 95, Albino seedling 13, abo13

BGN  26:134
Stock number: BGS 95
Locus name: Albino seedling 13
Locus symbol: abo13

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Albino seedling e = alb,,e (1).
Albino seedling p = alb,,p (2).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (1, 2).
Located in chromosome 2HL (2); abo13.p is located about 1.2 cM from the msg2 (male sterile genetic 2) locus (2).

Description:

Seedlings have a white color and die at the two to three leaf stage (1). The abo13.p gene must be maintained as a heterozygous stock.

Origin of mutant:

A spontaneous mutant in Titan (CIho 7055) (1).

Mutational events:

abo13.p (GSHO 585) in Titan (CIho 7055) (1, 2); 12 additional mutants isolated in the progeny of diethyl sulfate treated msg2 plants (generated from a cross to a balanced tertiary trisomic stock) crossed to Arivat (CIho 7543) (3, 4).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

abo13.p (GSHO 585) in Titan.
