An improved method for the detection of mutants at the waxy locus in hordeum vulgare

Immature barley spikes from greenhouse and field-grown plants were harvested 2-4 days prior to anthesis and prepared for analysis. The improved procedure described permits routine and accurate scoring of large numbers of pollen grains and detection of low frequency forward or reverse mutations at th...

Zusammenfassung:Immature barley spikes from greenhouse and field-grown plants were harvested 2-4 days prior to anthesis and prepared for analysis. The improved procedure described permits routine and accurate scoring of large numbers of pollen grains and detection of low frequency forward or reverse mutations at the waxy locus. Reversion frequencies are presented in table form for azide- and gamma-induced mutants. (JMT)
