Rosette Anthocyanin Dwarf 1-135

Sold in packs of 100 seeds.

Plants of stock C1-135, rosette, exhibit extreme shortening of internodes with leaves pressed close to the soil.  The hypocotyl is shortened and cotyledon emergence may be delayed by 1-2 days.  

In the dwarf genetic background, leaves, stems, and flowers are reduced in size.

Leaves are a darker green hue than standard.  Leaf development and flowering are delayed by a few days.  Seed pods are shortened.  

Rosette plants produce less gibberellin.  Application of gibberellic acid to leaves or soil results in elongated growth. 

Stock 1-135 has been selected to have strong expression of purple anthocyanin, Pan (8), however the application of gibberellic acid to the plant also results in reduced anthocyanin expression. 

This stock was selected and bred from an F2 population of an original cross between 1-131 standard rosette anthocyanin expressing crossed with 1-75 dwarf anthocyaninless.
