Corrections in BGS numbers previously assigned. In the previous issues some BGS numbers were given twice by mistake. List of genetic stocks for which description is published in BGN, Vols. 8 through 13. The phenotype of the homozygous recessive plant shows nonfunctional female reproductive parts but anthers are well developed and fully pollen fertile.
Spikes are nearly normal length but are awnless and completely sterile.
Due to the lack of a midvein and rapid elongation, the second and later leaves droop noticeably. Leaf length slightly differs from normal although the leaves are somewhat narrower. The phenotype of the heterozygous plant shows a midvein present in the basal half of the leaf but disappearing toward the tip. This results in some drooping effect, but less apparent than in the homozygous plants. In this stock, for ovl , the translocation was eliminated.
