BGS 196, Semidwarf 7, sdw7

BGN  43:103
Stock number: BGS 196
Locus name: Semidwarf 7
Locus symbol: sdw7

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Semidwarf u = sdw.u (3).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (4).
Located in chromosome 4HL (4); sdw7.u is based on linkage drag with the int-c (intermedium spike-c) locus (4); sdw7.u is associated with SNP markers 1_0738 to 2_1397 (positions 26.58 to 47.80 cM) in 4H bins 02 to 04 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW821 (1).

Description:

The original sdw7.u mutant was isolated based on reduced plant height (2). Plants of the Bowman backcross-derived line for sdw7.u, BW821, had slightly longer rachis internodes than Bowman. Grain yields of BW821 were about 2/3 those of Bowman. Other morphological traits of BW821 were similar to those of Bowman (2).

Origin of mutant:

A sodium azide induced mutant in Glenn (CIho 15769) (2).

Mutational events:

sdw7.u (GSHO 2462, DWS1072, SA6102-2-4-8) in Glenn (CIho 15769) (2, 3).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

sdw7.u (GSHO 2462) in Glenn; sdw7.u in Bowman (PI 483237)*4 (GSHO 2000, BW821, NGB 22258).
