Regulation of pr1 by c1 and r1 during purple anthocyanin synthesis in the kernel aleurone: number of kernels on F2 progeny ears with specific aleurone color
| c1 allele | Purple (9) | Red (3) | Colorless (4) | P-value χ2 | r1 allele | Purple (9) | Red (3) | Colorless (4) | P-value χ2 |
| c1-MGS131036 (c1 R1-g b1 pl1) | 465 | 185 | 216 | 0.13 | r1-MGS167054 (r1-g C1 b1 pl1) | 688 | 265 | 336 | 0.10 |
| c1-MGS14633 | 270 | 86 | 141 | 0.20 | r1-MGS14638 | 614 | 232 | 298 | 0.20 |
χ2 analysis was performed to detect significant deviation (P < 0.01) of observed phenotypic classes from expected.
