Narrative
Rapid reproductive regenerating and photoperiod insensitive autogamous birdsfoot trefoil genetic stock was developed from a single rapid-flowering clone resulting from irradiated seeds AG-S4 autogamous birdsfoot trefoil. Flowers after receiving approx. 1000 accumulated head units when grown under 10 hr light period with a light intensity averaging 410 mol m-2 s-1. There are no other known genetic sources of birdsfoot trefoil that flower under these conditions. Because it is photoperiod insensitive, it is also suitable for basic research involving flowering response. All plants are autogamous and do not require hand manipulations to produce seeds. Crosses readily and bi-directionally with other birdsfoot trefoil genotypes. Although when used as a female parent must be emasculated, and has a lower successful pod set percentage than when used as a male parent.

Pedigree
Description:
Two grams of AG-S4 seed was irradiated with 20 kR of gamma radiation. A random 1200-plant population (AG-S4-IR) was grown from irradiated seeds under greenhouse conditions. After self-pollination, seeds from two pods per plant were collected and designated IR-S1. A second random 1200-plant population was grown from the IR-S1. A single rapid flowering clone was identified (RG-S1). Seeds of RG-S1 were germinated to produce 28 RG-S2 plants whose composite populations of seeds (RG-S3) is AG-S4
