BGS 417, Eceriferum-y, cer-y

BGN  44:149
Stock number: BGS 417
Locus name: Eceriferum-y
Locus symbol: cer-y

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

None.

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (6).
Located in chromosome 1HS probably (1); cer-y.72 is associated mainly with SNP markers 1_0873 to 1_0562 (positions 32.99 to 88.33 cM) in 1H bins 04 to 08 of the Bowman backcross-derived line BW131 (1).

Description:

Surface wax coating on the spike appears greatly reduced, and the wax coating on the leaf sheath and stem is reduced or normal (wax code + +/++ ++). The original cer-y.72 stock showed semi-sterility (6). The Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-y.72, BW131, has normal fertility and surface wax on the leaf sheath and stem appears normal (wax code + ++ ++) (2). BW131 plants were agronomically and morphologically similar to Bowman (2).

Origin of mutant:

An ethylene imine induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (6).

Mutational events:

cer-y.72 (NGB 110956, GSHO 446) in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (3, 6); cer-y.884 (NGB 111772) in Bonus (4); cer-y.828 (NGB 111716) in Bonus (5).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

cer-y.72 (NGB 110956, GSHO 446) in Bonus; cer-y.72 in Bowman (PI 483237)*5 (GSHO 2195); cer-y.72 in Bowman*6 (BW131, NGB 20537).
