- Observation F1 rice plants were nonscented.
- Observation F2 rice segregated three nonscented to one scented.
- Observation Seeds from heterozygous F1 plants also segregated for scent because of xenia.
- Observation Of 992 F2 seeds, 748 were nonscented and 244 scented.
- Observation F3 seed ratings confirmed monogenic recessive scent inheritance.
