Below are given the results of a backcross test with Golden 2 against translocation 3-7b. In the light of our earlier report (M.G.C. N.L., 3-23-37, p. 14) that g2 was possibly linked with d, the indication is that g2 is in chromosome 3. Chromosome 7, however, is not excluded.
T+ | Tg2 | ++ | +g2 | ||
g2 | 139 | 19 | 19 | 160 | = 337 |
T3-7b |
Percent recombination = 11.3
