Summary A dominant or partially dominant gene for sensitivity to photoperiod in mungbean strain PI 180311 was identified and labeled Ps. The gene was expressed when strain P1180311, or crosses involving PI 180311 were grown in 16- or 14-hour photoperiods but was not expressed when the populations were grown in a 12-hour photoperiod or in the field at Columbia, Missouri. Dominance × dominance epistatic effects were indicated as governing days to flower in absence of the obvious effect of the Ps gene. A gene A for purple hypocotyl was independent of the gene Ps.
