            StBaRl*-N2549/+ mutant plant from the outcross on Mo17 showing proliferation of defective ears which failed to fill the respective husks. The clustering observed here is due to an unrelated phenomenon called "bearclaw" (by corn breeders) that occurs in some vigorous hybrids under especially good growing conditions, which did not help ear development of this mutant.

            Normal and mutant (left) open pollenated ears from progeny of cross of StBaRl*-N2549/+ on Mo17 showing mutant ear with small weak cob, irregular kernel placement and aborted kernels. This ear was produced on a small but vigorous plant and did not properly fill the husks which enclosed it.
