Abstract:
A series of double mutant homozygotes have been produced from three wilty tomato mutants; flacca, sitiens and notabilis. The phenotypic interaction between the mutant genes has been studied. The severity of phenotype in the double mutants does not correspond to that predicted from the single mutant homozygotes. The results are discussed in relation to the probable involvement of the mutants in abscisic acid metabolism.
