Abstract/Contents: | "Clones of Loluim perenne L., chosen as sensitive or tolerant to sulphur dioxide (SO2) injury, were employed in a half-diallel crossing programme to carry out an analysis of the genetic basis of tolerance to acute SO2 concentrations. Their progeny were fumigated with SO2 and the percentage injury on the foliage scored and subjected to an analysis of variance designed to test an additive dominance model. The genetic analysis indicated that dominance was towards SO2 susceptibility. Further analysis of the relationship between variance and covariance of members of the same parental array supported this finding and suggested that only a few genes were involved. The results show clearly that the relative sensitivity of L. perenne to acute SO2 concentrations is heritable, with significant additive and non-additive components. A comparison with the very limited number of other studies on the genetic basis of SO2 tolerance, suggests that it is highly variable between species." |
