Abstract excerpt
Soybean is trifoliolate, but 4-, 5-, or 6-foliolate leaves have been reported and expression of such multi-foliolate (MF) leaf forms has been shown to be heritable. Here we analyze the genetic complexity of the MF phenotype and the dependence of its expression on the environment. Recombinant inbred (RI) segregants of soybean were grown in different environments. The frequency of plants expressing the MF phenotype...
