BGS 461, Zebra stripe 2, zeb2

BGN  43:152
Stock number: BGS 461
Locus name: Zebra stripe 2
Locus symbol: zeb2

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Zoned leaf = zd (4).
Zoned leaf = z (5, 7, 14).
Zoned leaf c = zbc (7, 13, 15).
Zebra leaf or zoned Colorado = zc (6, 14).
Zebra striped leaves = zd (8).
Zebra stripe 2 =zb2 (14).
Chlorina seedling 10 = f10 (3, 11, 15).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (4, 5, 11).
Located in chromosome 4HS (3, 4); zeb2.b is between the lgn4 (light green 4) and lgn3 (light green 3) loci (9); zeb2.b is about 9.3 cM distal from the Kap1 (Hooded lemma 1) locus (3, 10); zeb2.b is about 17.0 cM proximal from the glf3 (glossy leaf 3) locus (3, 10); no recombination with the lgn4 locus (3, 10); zeb2.b is associated with SNP markers 1_1180 to 1_0946 (positions 58.13 to 74.11 cM) in 4H bin 05 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW931 (1); fch10.s is associated with SNP markers 1_0668 to 1_1224 (positions 63.19 to 91.93 cM) in 4H bins 05 and 06 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW352 (1), in 4H bin 05 near the centromere.

Description:

Leaves are chlorina throughout the life cycle, independent of light and temperature (4). Plants may be killed by low temperature during the winter when normal plants are unaffected (4). A zonate pattern of different degrees of chlorina is observed in seedling leaves. After much confusion about this gene, the locus was named zebra stripe 2 = zb2 (14). Plants are very weak or non-viable in the field in North Dakota, but only reduced vigor is noted when grown in the greenhouse (2). When compared to Bowman in the field, the Bowman backcross-derived line for zeb2.b (BW931) headed about 11 days later and produced only little very thin seed. Rachis internodes were slightly shorter and plants were 3/5 to 3/4 of normal height (2).

Origin of mutant:

Spontaneous mutants in an unknown cultivar (4, 15).

Mutational events:

zeb2.b (GSHO 93) in an unknown cultivar (4, 5, 12, 14); fch10.s in an unknown six-rowed cultivar (GSHO 1234) (10, 11); based on SNP patterns the fch10.s mutant studied by Woodward (10, 15) originated in six-rowed barley and the zeb2.b mutant first isolated by Immer and Henderson (4) originated in Bonus or a closely related line (1).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

zeb2.b (GSHO 93) in an unknown two-rowed cultivar; zeb2.b in Bowman (PI 483237)*4 (GSHO 2012); zeb2.b in Bowman*7 (BW931, NGB 22360); fch10.s (GSHO 1737) in an unknown six-rowed cultivar; fch10.s in Bowmnan (PI 483237)*7 (BW352, NGB 20591).
