It was characterized by drying of leaflet margins to drying of complete leaflets of older leaves. The oldest leaves were the most affected and the intensity of necrosis decreased toward the apical meristem. The inheritance of leaf necrosis and linkage relationships with 7 other morphological markers were studied in crosses of ICC15566 (♂) with 5 desi type accessions. A single recessive gene, designated nec, governed the necrotic characteristic. The nec locus was linked to gl (glabrous shoots) with a map distance of 16 ± 3 cM. The loci slv (simple leaves), mlv (multipinnate leaves), nlv (narrow leaflets), hg (prostrate growth habit), P (pink corolla) and shp (round seed shape) segregated independently of nec date: 2000 publication: Journal of Heredity volume: 91 number: 1 publisher: Oxford University Press pagerange: 79-81 refereed: TRUE issn: 0022-1503 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/jhered/91.1.79 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=A+gene+for+leaf+necrosis+in+chickpea+%28Cicer+arietinum+L.%29&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts=5&hl=e related_url_type: author funders: Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences, Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India projects: Library-ICRISAT@CGIAR.ORG citation: Gaur, P M and Gour, V K (2000) A gene for leaf necrosis in chickpea (cicer Arietinum L.).
