An Inheritance of Multiple Leaflet in Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Marr.)
Abstract
A group of normal leaflet soybeans (IGH 23, GH-29-14-3 (2), Siatsa 1204 A, Williams, SJ-5, SJ-2, Clark 63 and TN # 4) were crossed with a group of multiple leaflet soybeans (BB 13 No. 9, BB 13 No. 10, BB 13 No. 11) to obtain 21 direct crosses and 22 reciprocal crosses. Five more crosses were also made between lines within the multiple leaflet group. Chi-square tests for F2 segregation of these 48 crosses showed that multiple leaflet was controlled by 1 or 2 pairs with different actions of major gene locating in the nucleus. Each cross also exhibited a unique combination of penetrance, and expressivity. This reflected in a low heritability estimate of number of maximum leaflet in many crosses.
