Additional linkage tests of waxy1 marked reciprocal translocations at the MGCSC --Jackson, JD, Stinard, P, Zimmerman, S In the collection of A-A translocation stocks maintained at MGCSC is a series of waxy1-linked translocations that are used for mapping unplaced mutants. Also new wx1-linked translocations are being introduced into this series and are in a conversion program to transfer each translocation to the inbred backgrounds M14 and W23. These inbreds are then crossed together to produce vigorous F1's to fill seed requests. Over the years, pedigree and classification problems arose during the propagation of these stocks. We have been able to sort through the problem ones, and can now supply good sources proven by linkage tests to include the correct translocated chromosomes. Additional pedigree information on bad sources is available should anyone want to check on samples supplied to them previously by the Stock Center.

Previously we reported the linkage results for some of these stocks (MNL72:81-82; MNL73:88-89; MNL74:67-69). Below is a summary of additional translocation stocks for which we have completed testing. Additional translocation stocks will be tested as time allows.

The following linkage relationship was established: vp1 � 9.6 - T � 2.1 - wx1. These data are consistent with the % recombination vp1-wx1 = 11.06+0.62 in Robertson, D.S. 1955. Genetics 40:745-760. These could also be consistent with the breakpoints determined by Dr. C. R. Burnham and students, University of Minnesota.
