Genetic analysis of the short-stem populations of rye (Secale cereale L.) for the trait «plant height»

Cytology and Genetics 2003, v 37, number 5, 21–29

The process and results of genetic analysis of the short-stem rye populations (Secale cereale L.) for the trait «plant height» are described. The analysis has been performed with the joint scaling test using data of estimation of the parental and hybrid populations developed in the cyclic crosses between four initial populations with reciprocs. Monogenic, digenic, and trigenic differences between parental rye populations for two genes of incomplete dominance and one multiallelic gene with additive allelic interaction were determined.
