Abstract
The major genes for dwarfism in Norin 10 wheat, Rht 1 and Rht 2 are located on chromosomes 4A and 4D. The gene for extreme dwarfness from Tom Thumb, Rht 3, is located close to, or is allelic with Rht 1 on chromosome 4A. An F2 telocentric mapping technique has been employed to locate these genes by using their gibberellin insensitive phenotype. Gai/Rht 1 and Gai/Rht 3 were estimated to be 13 map units from the centromere on the alpha arm of chromosome 4A and Gai/Rht 2 15 map units from the centromere on the long arm of chromosome 4D. These results suggest that the genes are part of a homoeo-allelic series.
