Comment
Mapping: Proximal to Lr19 and distal to Xpsr165-7D (Zhang et al., 2005).
In the presence of both Sd1 and Sd2, Lr19 is transmitted preferentially in heterozygotes, the degree of distortion being determined by genetic background. In heterozygotes with the same background, and in the presence of only Sd2, Lr19 shows strong self-elimination. Based on these results, it seems likely that the Sears' translocation 7D-7Ag#7 does not carry Sd1 (Prins and Marais, 1999).
Genes with gametocidal activity, Sd1 (Zhang and Dvorak, 1990) and Sd2 (Prins and Marais, 1999), in wheat are present in homoeologous group 7 chromosomes of Thinopyrum elongatum (Kibirige-Sebunya and Knott, 1983; Zhang and Dvorak, 1990).
