No difference in maize yield was detected between white and mottled mucuna types.
This on-far m research compared the biomass production of three mucuna varieties (white-, mottled-, and black seeded) in a rotational maize-mucuna system.
There are over 20 alleles of mottled and these can be grouped into three classes based on the phenotype of the affected males.
Subsequently, we and others have discovered mutations in mottled alleles of other classes.
The new cycle begins with the deposition of mottled silty sandstone over the mottled mudstone unit of the underlying cycle.
The nuclei of zygotene spermatocytes are stained intensely with a mottled pattern.
Yield responses during both study years indicated that production potential of the black type is somewhat less than of white and mottled types.
When prepared, the seeds are somewhat mottled deep-brown and tan.
