Abstract

In the F2 generation of crosses between selected strains of Medicago truncatula Gaertn. there was independent segregation of the genes for the marker characters "red leaf", "smooth pod", and "clockwise-anticlockwise coiling pattern of the pod". A new marker, "erect type" of vegetative development, is a recessive character which is not linked to the "red leaf" gene. The absence of linkage greatly enhances the value of these characters as strain markers.
