In a normal wheat (Triticum ssp.L.) spike, one floret carries only one pistil that will further develop into one grain after fertilization. The cultivated common wheat (T. aestivum L.) mutation line Three Pistils (TP) carried three pistils in a floret. Although one or two of the pistils died out before seed set in some florets, there were exist many florets that set three seeds. Normally, it was observed that there were one to three seeds in different florets of the same spike. Therefore, this mutation trait could raise considerably the number of grains per spike. The weight of 100 grains in three seeds set florets was lower than that of in one seed set florets. But three seeds set florets were significantly to surpass the one seed set florets in grain(s) weight per floret. Based on these results, the three pistils trait was suggested to be an interesting germplasm resource. Localisation of the gene controlling the three pistils trait was carried out by the method of crossing TP with the Chinese Spring disomic substitutions. F2 population segregation analysis revealed that only the 5B F2 population did not show homogeneity to control population. chi2-test analysis indicated that 5B F2 population, and only this population, was deviated from the Mendelian segregation ratio (3:1). As a conclusion, the gene for three pistils trait was located on chromosome 5B. According to the Recommended rules for gene symbolization in wheat, the name of the dominant gene for three pistils trait in the line TP was suggested as Pis1.
