Description:
Selected mutations for SVP1 from ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) mutagenized populations of
tetraploid wheat Kronos were introgressed into Kronos (PI 576168) by crossing them two times with
the non-mutagenized Kronos. Mutations in the A and B genome homeologs were then combined by
crossing, and selection of double homozygous mutants (designated as null mutants) using marker
assisted selection in the F2 progeny.
