Fig. 5. Images of plants expressing pigment from the b alleles used in this study. Photographs were taken of plants that are the result of at least three generations of backcrosses with our b tester line. All of the anthocyanin pigmentation in these images, except for the anther color seen in several of the tassel images, is from the indicated b allele. The Roman numeral in parentheses indicates the clade to which the allele belongs, and the subspecies of the teosintes from which the relavant alleles were isolated is indicated. The images are ordered as in Table 1.
