maize mutant phenotypes

small kernel; small seedling Selfed colored colorless flinty, smk*-N1057A, M2 origin ear segregating for small floury opaque colored and colorless mutant kernels. Note, 1/4 large kernels suggesting an incomplete dominant 1:1:1:1 ratio for this mutant expressed in the 3N endosperms.

small kernel; small seedling Excised immature mutant embryos grown on basal (left) and enriched media, showing best growth on basal.

small kernel; small seedling two small narrowleaf hypoploid smk*-N1057A mutant seedlings from planting normal kernels with hypoploid embryos from a cross of +/smk*-N1057A x TB-1Sb
