BGS 609, Proanthocyanidin-free 29, ant29

Stock number: BGS 609
Locus name: Proanthocyanidin-free 29
Locus symbol: ant29

Previous nomenclature and symbolization:

None.
Inheritance:
Monofactorial recessive (2).
Location is unknown.
Description:
Mutant plants synthesize a wildtype amount of anthocyanins in the vegetative parts. Under stress conditions the mutant grains can produce a varying but always small amount of proanthocyanidins. Compared to the wildtype the proanthocyanidin content is clearly decreased (2).
Origin of mutant:
A sodium azide induced mutant in the breeding line Ca 708912 (Triumph x Tyra) (1).
Mutational events:
ant29.2110 in Ca 708912 (2); ant29.2014, 29.2016 in Natasha (PI 592171) (2).
Mutant used for description and seed stock:
ant29.2110 in Ca 708912 (NGB 13713).
