IV.12. New gene symbols and revision of previous symbols in barley.
T. Tsuchiya, Department of Agronomy, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, 80521, U.S.A.
Some new gene symbols have been assigned officially through the Chairman of the Committee of Nomenclature and Symbolization of Barley Genes. They are listed in Table 1.
Table 1. List of new gene symbols allotted to barley characters in 1972.
Revision was made for some genes based on the results from allelism testing and other critical analysis. They are listed in Table 2.
Table 2. List of genes allelic to previously established ones and the revised symbols.
Any suggestions on this matter would be appreciated.
