Narrative
N51 (YYcc genotype) light yellow seed and green seedling stem. Seed color in sweetclover is determined by combined effects of the presence or absence of green pigmentation in embryo and seed coat, controlled by Y/y alleles and of brown pigmentation in seed coat, conditioned by C/c alleles. The C/c alleles also control red vs. green seedling stem color. Seed should be scarified before planting. One of a set of 4 lines differing in seed color that represent all possible homozygous combinations of 2 allelic pairs, Y/y and C/c.
