Fig. 4 Diagramatic map of chromosomal regions containing the lpa1 and lpa2 loci and myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase (MIPS) genes of barley, maize, and rice. As determined in this study, the map locations of rice lpa1-1 and MIPS gene are indicated on the rice chromosome 2 (outer right) and rice chromosome 3 (outer left) maps (Chen et al., 1997; Guiderdoni et al., 1992; Huang et al., 1994; Huang et al., 1997; and Panaud et al., 1997), respectively. Horizontal dashed lines indicate cross hybridization of RFLP probes, including MIPS (Ahn and Tanksley, 1993; Kurata et al., 1994; Larson and Raboy, 1999; VanDeynze et al., 1995) in addition to map locations of the maize and barley lpa1 and lpa2 mutations (Larson et al., 1998; Larson and Raboy, 1999)
