Inheritance and allelism of morphological traits in eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis L.)

HORTICULTURE RESEARCH, 2.

TL;DR: Inheritance analysis in families derived from controlled hybridization of ‘Covey” (green leaf) and ‘Forest Pansy’ (purple leaf) suggest that purple leaf color and weeping architecture are both controlled by single recessive genes, for which the symbols pl1 and wp1 are proposed, respectively.
