The soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars Arksoy . Dorman , York , Shore , and CNS each contain a single dominant gene for resistance to peanut mottle virus (PMV). Crosses were made among these cultivars and F3 progenies of individual F2 plants were inoculated with PMV. The degree and type of segregation that occurred was used to determine the allelic relationship among the genes in these cultivars. This information is valuable to soybean breeders wishing to incorproate PMV resistance into breeding lines. Segregation was not observed in crosses among Arksoy, Dorman, York and Shore. It was concluded that they contain the previously reported Rpv1 gene for PMV resistance. Crosses of CNS with Dorman, Shore, and York segregated for PMV reaction. The data provided a good fit to the ratio expected from two dominant genes segregating independently. Assignment of a symbol for the CNS gene is being postponed until its allelic relationship with rpv2 in Peking is determined. No evidence for linkage was found between the two dominant genes for PMV resistance or between them and the pubescence color gene, T-t.
