Abstract excerpt
Pigmentation in flowers of Japanese morning glory is intense in the epidermal layer, lighter in the subepidermis, and much lighter in the internal tissues; by contrast coloration in stems occurs only in the sub-epidermal layer. The a-3(f) mutant of Japanese morning glory bears white flowers with normal-colored flecks and sectors, and its variegation also occurs in leaves and stems. The mutable line can produce chi...
