BGS 418, Eceriferum-z, cer-z

BGN  44:150
Stock number: BGS 418
Locus name: Eceriferum-z
Locus symbol: cer-z

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

None.

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (4).
Located in chromosome 7HS (3); cer-z.52 is located close to the ant1 (anthocyanin-less 1) locus based on linkage drag (3); cer-z.52 is not associated with any SNP markers in the Bowman backcross-derived line BW156 (1); likely located between SNP markers 1_0726 and 1_0346 (positions 75.21 to 82.82 cM, a gap with no heterogeneities between Bonus and Bowman) in 7H bins 05 to 06 of BW156 (2).

Description:

Surface wax coating on the spike, leaf sheath, and stem appears absent (wax code - - ++). The original stock shows leaf streaks, late maturity, and semi-sterility (partial seed set) (4). The Bowman backcross-derived line has waxy nodes, normal maturity and fertility, and no leaf streaks (2). Kernels of the Bowman backcross-derived line for cer-z.52, BW156, were 5 to 10% lighter than those of Bowman. Grain yields of BW156 were about 60% those of Bowman (2).

Origin of mutant:

A neutron induced mutant in Bonus (NGB 14657, PI 189763) (4).

Mutational events:

cer-z.52 (NGB 110936, GSHO 447) in Bonus (NGB 14657,PI 189763) (4, 5); cer-z.74 (NGB 110958) in Bonus (5); cer-z.113 (NGB 110998) in Bonus (5, 8); cer-z.512 (NGB 111400) in Foma (NGB 14659, CIho 11333) (6); ); cer-z.705 (NGB 111593), -z.981 (NGB 111869), -z.988 (NGB 111876), -z.989 (NGB 111877), -z.990 (NGB 111878) in Bonus (7).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

cer-z.52 (NGB 110936, GSHO 447) in Bonus; cer-z.52 in Bowman (PI 483237)*7 (GSHO 1838, BW156, NGB 21988).
