narrowleaf bladeless narrowleaf: Two nlbl*-N2361 mutant plants showing extremely narrow leaf blades with ragged edges and reduced green color.

narrowleaf bladeless F2 progeny from sibbed Nlbl*-SN2598/+ showing a tall zigzag culm narrow leaf heterozygote (center) and two tiny bladeless homozygotes. The difference in leaf structure shown in these two results from the segregation of recessive warty (wty) on left.

narrowleaf bladeless Homozygous Narrow leaf bladeless Nl*-SN2598 mutant plant showing extreme tangled narrow leaves and absence of tassel or ears.
