IX.2 Errata in the barley genetics literature.
1. In supplement III (1) Robertson assigned three symbols for zebra striped leaves. In previous summaries the symbol for zoned leaf had been assigned as z. The zbc symbol assigned in supplement III is apparently the z gene from previous summaries.
2. In Barley Genetics I (2) the symbol for zebra stripe on chromosome 4 is given as zc but no change from the previous symbol zbc is recommended. In Barley Genetics II (3) the symbol zbc has been restored.
3. In supplement III brachytic-4 (br4) is listed in Table 5 with linkage association with glossy seedling (gl3) but is not listed in Table 1 of new symbols.
4. In Barley Genetics II (3) brachytic 2, br2 is listed in the table of new symbols. This is apparently br4 previously designated in Supplement III.
