Type Gene
Species Zea mays subsp. mays (Maize) [ GR_tax:014546 ]
Germplasm
Description Semidominant Cg1 plants have narrow leaves, extreme tillering. Semidominant Cg1
mutant that has a pleitropic and highly variable phenotype, even in inbred
backgrounds. Plants that express the most extreme phenotype are short and
highly tillered, have narrow waxy leaves, and have vegetatively transformed
ears and tassels. Such plants are generally completely sterile. Plants
expressing an intermediate phenotype generally lack tillers, have narrow leaves
with variable amounts of epicuticular wax, and have partially vegetative ears
and tassels. In plants in which Cg1 expression is suppressed, the only obvious
phenotype may be the presence of sectors of epicuticular wax on adult phase
leaves. (S. Poethig). Genetic 2005 3 coordinates determined from these
recombination and map data: cg1 -9- d1 -16- lg3; see MaizeGDB ID:935267. This
gene was originally curated in MaizeGDB Database and the map position was
displayed on the maize bins map if feasible.
