Seedlings of ‘Russell’ oats watered with a nutrient solution lacking phosphorus developed red anthocyanin pigment in coleoptiles and lower leaf sheaths. ‘Garry,’ ‘Niagara,’ ‘Orbit,’ and ‘Tioga’ seedlings were entirely green. Two‐thirds of the ‘Rodney’ seedlings were classed as having slight red color. ‘Clintland’ seedlings had a moderate amount of red color, but had much less than Russel.
