Inheritance of a Yellow-Leaf Mutant and a Pollen Fertility Restorer in Sugarbeet1

T. E. Roundy and J. C. Theurer2

A yellow-leaf character in sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) was conditioned by a single recessive gene. A genetic pollen fertility restorer in CMS plants, observed in the yellow-leaf material, was found to be inherited as a single dominant gene. Linkage tests showed that yellowleaf (yl) was independent of monogerm (m), annual growth habit (B), and the restorer gene (Rf3).

Key Words: Beta vulgaris • Pollen restorer • Linkage • Chlorophyll deficiency

1 Cooperative investigations of the Agricultural Research Service, USDA; the Beet Sugar Development Foundation; and the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. Part of a thesis submitted by the senior author in partial fulfillment of requirements for the M.S. degree, Utah State University, Logan.

2 Former Research Assistant, Department of Plant Science, Utah State University (presently at: Department of Agronomy, Purdue University, Lafayette, IN 47907), and Research Geneticist, ARS, USDA, Corps Research Lab UMC 63, Utah State University, Logan, UT 84322.

Received for publication June 9, 1973.
