Abstract excerpt
A number of mutations affecting seed development in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) have been known for many years; however, to date, no research has been reported that elucidates the molecular structure of the causal genes. As a first step, we initiated the linkage mapping of the two shrunken endosperm genes seg8 and sex1 using microsatellite markers. The recessive gene seg8 was mapped in the centromeric region of...
