Abstract

The objective of this work was to study the inheritance of the expression spread hilum in the genotypes T48, Bragg and BR 16. One recessive gene conditioning the phenotype spread hilum in the T48 genotype was found. The expression of the spread hilum is dependent of locus T_, which controls pubescence color; therefore it occurs only in genotypes with brown pubescence (T_), which characterizes pleiotropic effect of this locus on the trait spread hilum. No maternal effect was found in the expression of spread hilum.
