Displaced and Tandem Duplications in the Long Arm of Chromosome 10 in Maize

RESUMO
Lc, an anthocyanin pigmenting factor mapping somewhat more than one unit distal to R, is borne on a chromosomal segment which is homologous with part of the R-r:standard duplicated segment. Deficiencies and tandem duplications of the R to Lc region arise from exchanges within these obliquely paired homologous segments. The deficiencies are transmitted with a high, although reduced, frequency by the male gametophyte and are homozygous viable. Yet, the R to Lc region is not duplicated either proximal to R or distal to Lc. Thus the Lc-marked segment and either the P- or the S-marked segment of R-r constitute a displaced duplication. Such an arrangement can initiate a tandem and displaced duplication cycle.———No evidence was obtained for fractionation of the compound phenotype conditioned by Lc.
