Theoretical and Applied Genetics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Sixteen translocation stocks developed in pearl millet, Pennisetum typhoides (Burm.) S.&H. (2 n = 14) were inter-crossed and the meiotic configurations of f1's analysed. A translocation tester set comprising five translocation stocks, each involving two non-homologous chromosomes has been developed.
