    Notes: Abstract Genetic factors controlling tolerance to the herbicide Alachlor in maize were localised by means of two different strategies. In the first approach, backcross (BC) plants, derived from pollen which had been subjected to selective pressure for resistance to the herbicide, were analysed for segregation distortion at 47 RFLP loci and compared to BC plants obtained from non-selected pollen. Preferential transmission of five chromosomal regions where putative QTLs (Quantitative Trait Loci) are localised was revealed in the BC plants from selected pollen. A second approach was based on a classical linkage analysis for segregation of the same set of RFLPs and factors controlling the trait, in a BC population of 210 individuals, by means of regression analysis. This study detected seven significant loci in four genomic regions. Overall, two loci revealed both segregation distortion and association with the expression of the trait, indicating linkage to genes expressed in both gametophytic and sporophytic phase. Three chromosomal regions appeared to carry factors involved in plant tolerance to Alachlor which are not expressed in pollen. Conversely, three loci were linked to factors selectable in pollen, but did not reveal significant association with tolerance in the plant in the segregating populations.

    Notes: Abstract Maize glutathione S-transferase (GST) isozymes are encoded by a gene family comprising at least five genes, three of which (Gst I, II andIII) have recently been isolated and sequenced. The enzymes are active as homo or heterodimers and exhibit intraspecific polymorphism including a “null” variant for the two major isoforms expressed in roots. Northern blot analyses performed on total root RNA from “null” and “plus” genotypes, usingGst I- andGst II-specific probes, indicated that theGst I gene controls the expression of the two major GST isoforms expressed in roots.Gst I andGst II were mapped by RFLP analysis using an F2 population of 149 individuals previously characterized.Gst I was localized on the long arm of chromosome 8, while two putativeGst II loci were mapped to chromosomes 8 (70 cM fromGst I) and 10, respectively.
