Abstract
This investigation involved two mutants, one with creamy-white flowers and the other with multifoliate leaves. Segregation in the progeny of the cross between them showed that trifoliate leaf is dominant to multifoliate and that four genes are involved: one hypostatic, one inhibitory and two duplicate antiinhibitory, designated Tf, ITf, A1ITf and A2ITf respectively. The F2 ratio was 183 trifoliate : 73 multifoliate. Yellow flower was dominant to creamy white and was controlled by a single gene, designated Yft. Both parents have reddish brown seeds but those of the F1 were lighter in colour. The F2s segregated 63 reddish brown: 1 white, indicating trigenic control and Brsd1, Brsd2 and Brsd3 are designated as the genes concerned. All eight genes appear to be independently inherited
