Abstract

Analysis of reciprocal F1, F2, F3, and backcross progeny from crosses between atrazine [2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-(isopropylamino)-s-triazine]-resistant and several susceptible genotypes of Brassica campestris L. indicated that triazine resistance was inherited cytoplasmically from the female parent. A partially dominant chlorotic cotyledon was used as a genetic marker to confirm true hybrids in the reciprocal F1 progenies. Phytotoxicity of atrazine was correlated with loss of the Hill reaction.
