Abstract
Chlorophyll mutants of polyploids are particularly useful for the study of the interaction of duplicated genetic material. In a polyploid species in which aneuploid stocks are available, such as hexaploid wheat, the similarities and differences of loci related to the mutant locus can be examined with the aim of determining what diversification has taken place among homoeologous loci. This paper reports on such a study of a spontaneous chlorophyll mutant recently described by Pettigrew, Driscoll and Rienits (1969).
