[Submit comment/correction][What is a locus?] A genetic locus is a specific position on a chromosome where a gene or genetic marker is located.

Remark	Legacy gene that is likely also represented in the numbered genes in the 'Lemma color' gene class In Wong et al., 1983 they determined that 'Grey lemma color was controlled by one gene in CAV 4248 and by two genes in CAV 4656. Brown lemma color was controlled by one gene, which was closely linked or pleiotropic with the gene for lemma pubescence in CAV 4904. There was no association between crown rust resistance and the three floret characters studied.'
