BGS 583, Praematurum-g, mat-g
Stock number: BGS 583
Locus name: Praematurum-g
Locus symbol: mat-g
Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:
Praematurum-30 = mat-30 (5).
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (2).
Location is unknown.
Location is unknown.
Description:
Early heading mutants at the mat-g locus have a moderate increase in earliness (heading 3 to 4 days earlier than the parents) under field cultivation in Sweden (3, 4). When grown under controlled environmental conditions, mutants are photo- and thermoperiod sensitive and have a pronounced long-day response (1).
