BGN 4: DESCRIPTION OF GENETIC STOCKS BARLEY GENETICS NEWSLETTER, VOL. 4, VII. DESCRIPTION OF GENETIC STOCKS
pp. 134-142

In the last issue, Vol. 3, coordinators were asked to prepare description of genetic stocks for each chromosome and specific group of mutants. This year the editors received only descriptions of new mutants of male sterile and desynapsis types. As obviously seen in the List of Genetic Stocks (BGN 4:131) many important genetic marker stocks do not have a gene description in BGN. We ask again the coordinators to prepare a description of genetic stocks for EACH CHROMOSOME and new mutant series such as ERECTOIDES, ECERIFERUM, etc. We hope that a somewhat complete list of genetic stocks will be published in the next issue, Vol. 5.

When crossed with the non-allelic desynaptic mutants des4 and des5, the F1's frequently show a low degree of desynapsis (up to 3 rod bivalents). When crossed with des7, the F1 shows a low to medium degree of desynapsis (d = 1.8) ranging from 7 ring bivalents (d = 0) to 4 ring bivalents + 1 rod bivalent + 4 univalents (d = 5) and there are some lagging chromosomes and micronuclei at Telophase I.
