  • M: late April
  • VE: early to mid-April
  • VL: mid-May and later
  • 14. Stem length (cm)

    Average of three measurements of stems from ground level to the base of ear or collar
    As the materials for determining the following ear characters, except glume length, five "standard" ears taken from a variety were used.

    15. Ear length (cm)

    The measurement from ear base or colloar to uppermost lemma tip

    16. Awn length (cm)

    Average of 10 measurements of awns taken each from two central spikelets in the middle portion of 5 ears

    17. Glume length (mm)

    Average of 2 measurements of glumes with awn of the central spikelets in the middle portion of an ear

    18. No. of triplets

    Average of five ears

    19. Ear density (mm)

    Average length of rachis internodes excluede 2-3 upper- and lower-most ones

    20. Lemma color
  • AL: albino or white
  • B: black
  • BR: brown

  • P: purple
  • Y: yellow
  • 21. Kernel color
  • BL: blue or dark blue
  • 22. 1000 kernel weight (g)

  • 24. Vernalization requirement
  • 1: highest spring
  • 2: spring
  • 3: intermediate
  • 4-6:winter ones according to the grade of vernalization
  • 25-27. Reaction to powdery mildew races

    Reactions of the cultivars to three major Japanese mildew races, I, IV and IX (Hiura 1960) were determined.

  • R: resistant
  • M: moderately resistant
  • S: susceptible
  • 28. Reaction to BaYMV

    Reaction to a soil-borne virus, BYMV, was investigated using 20 plants of each variety grown in severely infested fields with two replications (Takahashi et al. 1966). Disease symptom was observed three or more times in early spring. The criteria adopted for grading are:

    Mosaic symptom Leaf yellowing
    RR none none
    R slight slight
    M easily discernible evident yellowing in lower leaves
    S severe conspicuous yellowing with some necrosis
    SS very striking heavily stunted, and sometimes die

    29. Brittleness of rachis

    This character is known to be governed by two dominant complementary genes Bt and Bt2 which are semi-allelic and locating on chromosome 3 (Takahashi and Hayashi 1964, Takahashi 1965). Genetic constitution of a variety was investigates using two kinds of F1's from the crosses to two different genotypes,

  • W: bt Bt2 (Occidental type)
  • E: Bt bt2 (Oriental type)
  • 30. Hybrid lethal seedling

    Hybrid lethal seedlings were found to occur in the presence of two complementary dominant genes, Lse and Lsm. The genes are abbreviated in the catalogue,

  • E=Lse
  • e=lse
  • M=Lsm
  • m=lsm
  • 31. Hybrid chlorosis

    Hybrid chlorosis was known to occur in the presence of two dominant complementary genes, Che on chromosome 4 and Cha (Takahashi and Hayashi 1972).

  • A=Cha
  • a=cha
  • E=Che
  • e=che
  • 32. Specific genes or characters
