Abstrakt: We used the 'Baronesse'/'Full Pint' doubled haploid population to analyse the genetic factors controlling flowering date under South American conditions. Both parents have similar heading dates, but the population shows transgressive segregation. Two genes, eps2S on chromosome 2H and sdw1 on chromosome 3H, explained most of the phenotypic variation for anthesis date, with the later allele carried by 'Baronesse' and 'Full Pint' , respectively. Both effects were completely additive with no interaction. We studied three plant developmental periods: seedling emergence to tillering (Z10-Z20), tillering (Z20-Z30) and end of tillering to anthesis (Z30-Z49) under field conditions at three contrasting planting dates. Z10-Z20 was also measured under semi-controlled conditions. eps2S controlled Z30-Z49 periods, while sdw1 controlled Z20-Z30. Each of the two genes for the end-point phenotype-anthesis date-was a determinant of flowering at a different developmental stage. No gene x planting date interactions were detected.
