Abstract
A recessive gene controlling a higher aflatoxin B2 than B1 accumulation in A. flavus was shown to be linked to the histidine locus in linkage group VIII. The independent segregation of the histidine locus and selected gene markers in linkage groups I-VII led to the establishment of an 8th linkage group.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
