II.18 Allelism tests with some chlorina mutants.

As a result of our studies on the temperature sensitivity of the viable chlorina or viridis type mutants (Kleinhofs and Warner, 1974), we continue to investigate the allelism relationships of these mutants with particular attention to those presumed to be located on the same chromosome or with similar phenotypes and temperature responses. The following results have been obtained.

Chromosome 3, BHM 84 is not alleleic to BHM 133
Chromosome 4, lg 4 is not allelic to BHM 93
Chromosome 5, f7 is not allelic to BHM 119

The chromosome location of the BHM mutants is based on studies by Tuleen (1971).

In addition:
fc is not allelic to dES 26 or EMS 17
f4 is not allelic to dES 11
f7 is not allelic to dES 25
f8 is not allelic to dES 7, dES 35, or EMS 11
