Summary
The gene G which induces iron chlorosis inSolanum vernei when in the homozygous recessive condition is very closely linked to a locus which determines anthocyanin pigment production.
Resumen
El géne G ocasiona colosis de hierro enSolanum vernei; cuando existe en el recesivo homozigota se enlace estrechamente al locus asociado con la producción del pigmento antocianina.
