Further Studies on the Inheritance of Ovule Number in Pisum¹

Ovule number in Pisum was shown to be controlled by a simple, additive genetic system, with perhaps as few as three loci governing the entire range. An association was demonstrated between the Bt locus (conditioning the shape of the pod apex) and the number of ovules per ovary. The nature of the association, linkage or pleiotropy, remains unsettled.
