c-836956
- a deficiency that is not male
transmitted
--Peter A. Peterson
That a deficiency is not male transmitted
is no surprise. This arose from a C-I allele where changes in C-I
were isolated. The female transmission is slightly disturbed. Where a linked
marker (Bz) is expected in 50% of the progeny, this deficiency appears
approximately 38-45% of the time. Many embryos do not develop a seed. It
is ambivalent. The deficiency has a variable penetrance.
