Introgression of alleles of the isozymic locus glucosephosphate isomerase-2 (GPI-2) from the CC genome of Brassica carinata to the CC genome of Brassica alboglabra and their independent segregation from seed colour

A yellowish brown‐seeded Brassica alboglabra was resynthesized from a (B. alboglabra×Brassica carinata) ×B. alboglabra cross, followed by self‐pollination. The resynthesized B. alboglabra lost the allele of the isozymic locus glucosephosphate isomerase‐2 (GPI‐2) from natural B. alboglabra, which was replaced by an allele from the corresponding genome in B. carinata. A simple Mendelian segregation of these two alleles was observed in the F₂ population of a natural × resynthesized B. alboglabra cross. Furthermore, these two alleles segregated independently from the seed colour.
