BGS 101, Absent lower laterals 1, als1
Stock number: BGS 101
Locus name: Absent lower laterals 1
Locus symbol: als1
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
Absent lower laterals = als (6).
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (6).
Located in chromosome 3HL (6, 7. 9.10); als1.a is about 31.2 cM distal from the uzu1 (uzu 1) locus (7), als1.a is about 39.7 cM proximal from the cur2 (curly 2) locus (6); als1.a is near AFLP marker E4234-11 in subgroup 28 of the Proctor/Nudinka map (8); als1.a in BW012 is about 4.6 cM proximal from RFLP marker KFP128 (1); als1.a in BW012 is about 16.7 cM proximal of SSR marker GBM1050 (3); als1.a is associated with SNP markers 2_0628 to 2_0650 (positions 151.97 to 192.0 cM) in 3H bins 10 to 12 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW012 (4), in 3H bin11 (3).

Description:
Lateral spikelets at the base of the spike fail to develop or are partially developed. Tillers are large, coarse, and stiff, and only 1 or 2 tillers are produced in the six-rowed stock (6). The als1.a plants resemble those produced by the uniculm 2 (cul2) mutant (6). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line commonly produce 3 to 4 tillers with short, malformed spikes (irregular placement of central and lateral spikelets); and seed yields are very low (1, 2). The als1.a plants produced primary tillers, but secondary tillers were not formed (2). Other morphological differences between BW012 and Bowman included longer awns, 17 vs. 12 cm, and 3 to 5 more kernels per spike. Kernels were slightly longer and wider, but kernel weights were about 10% lighter (5).
