UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF03046180 JF - Proceedings: Plant Sciences SN - 0370-0097 PB - Indian Academy of Sciences N1 - Submitted as J A No. 126 by the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT). N2 - Inheritance of eight morphological characters, namely, prostrate growth habit; narrow, bicompound and simple leaves; purple and light green foliage colours; light blue corolla and green seed coat colour, was studied. AU the traits except the light blue corolla showed monofactorial recessive inheritance, while the light blue corolla involved interaction of two recessive factors. Joint segregations of narrow leaf and double-flowered peduncle and simple leaf and light blue corolla were studied, and in both cases no linkage was detected.
