Three point test on chromosome 1, involving a new dominant tassel-seed, Ts6, originating from a 'freak ear' in the Iowa Corn Show about 9 years ago

1. Three point test on chromosome 1, involving a new dominant tassel-seed, Ts6, originating from a 'freak ear' in the Iowa Corn Show about 9 years ago:

F₁ genotype	0	1	2	1,2	Total
+ + Ts6	93 83	94 59	1 1	0 1
br bm2 +	176	153	2	1	332
		46.1%	0.6%	0.3%

Ts6 is recommended as a first class, useful marker exhibiting sharp segregation and producing good normal ears (rows characteristically irregular) when tassel is pulled early.
