Possible relationships between three loci, Kala1, Kala3, and Kala4, and previously reported loci and genes
| Locus | Possible allelic locus (Reference) | Cloned or possible gene (Reference)a |
|---|---|---|
| Kala1 |
Pp (Wang and Shu 2007) |

Rd (Furukawa et al. 2006) |
DFR (Furukawa et al. 2006) |

| Kala3 |
P (Nagao and Takahashi 1963) |
MYB (Saitoh et al. 2004) (Gao et al. 2011) |
| Kala4 |
Pb (Wang and Shu 2007) |

Pl (Kinoshita and Maekawa 1986) |
bHLH (Sakamoto et al. 2001) |

The cloned gene DFR occurs at the Rd locus, and the cloned gene bHLH gene occurs at the Pl locus. In this study we infer that P is a MYB gene.
