The objective of our study was to determine the composition of high-molecular weight-glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) in 120 cultivars of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Fourteen alleles and 34 allelic compositions were detected using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The most frequent HMW-GS alleles at the Glu-A1, Glu-B1 and Glu-D1 loci were null (57.1%), 7+9 (43.3%) and 5+10 (61.9%), respectively. However, low-frequency HMW-GS alleles were also observed, such as 13+16, 20, 21, 7 and 18, encoded by the Glu-B1 locus, and 4+12, encoded by the Glu-D1 locus. The wheat–rye 1BL.1RS translocation was identified in 25 cultivars, using acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The Glu-score varied greatly, and some lines reached the maximum value of 10.

A monoclonal antibody (P24B) to a wheat gliadin protein coded by a gene on the short arm of chromosome 1B was used as a chromosome marker. Somatic chromosome number for the 1B chromosome, as predicted by the level of binding of the antibody to extracts from seeds of single cross F2 and testcross F1 populations, was confirmed with sodium dodecyl sulfate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and root-tip analysis. The implications of monoclonal antibodies as tools for cytogenetic analysis are discussed.Key words: polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, aneuploid, cytogenetics, seed storage proteins.

Because of the growing number of pasture cultivars used in NZ and the difficulty of reliably separating cultivars of the same species by morphological characters, seed protein banding patterns have become a useful supplementary means of cultivar identification for the purposes of seed certification and plant variety rights applications. Sodium dodecylsufphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of proteins extracted from ground seed samples produces distinctive patterns of bands representing seed storage proteins of different molecular weights. The procedure can be carried out in two days using viable or dead seed, and the results are not affected by site and season of growth. Although individual seeds of outbreeding species such as perennial ryegrass and white clover produce different banding patterns, the combined population representing the cultivar remains constant unless there has been genetic shift during seed multiplication. Speckes for whrch this procedure is being successfully used include the ryegrasses and fescues, browntop, cocksfoot, bromes, red and white clovers, subterranean clover, serradella and lotus. Even cultrvars as closely related as Nui and Ellett ryegrasses and Huia and Pitau white clovers can be separated by careful work. Because of minor technical differences between runs, all cultivars to be compared must be run on the same gel. Keywords: Seed certification, Plant variety rights, sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Total seed storage protein profiles of 74 mungbean land races, three wild accessions and a popular variety ‘Jyoti’ of Odisha were analysed by Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). 32 genotypes could be clearly identified based on genotype-specific seed protein fingerprints while rest of the test genotypes were categorized into eight protein types. Genotypes included in each protein type had 100% homology and some of these could be duplicates. In this pursuit, a few specific polypeptide markers have been detected for identification of the land races/ genotypes. Dendrogram based on electrophoretic data clustered the genotypes into seven groups at 70% phenon level. Paralakhemundi local, Samarjhola local and Phulbani local-D; and three wild accessions (TCR 20, TCR 213 and TCR 243) were comparatively divergent from other genotypes. Besides, Jyoti, Kalahandi local 2A, Sikri local, kodala local A and TCR 20 were identified to be protein rich with high seed yield. TCR 20 being morphologically similar to mungbean, moderately high protein content and high yielding as well as resistant to drought and bruchids; it may serve as a valuable source genotype in recombination breeding

A total of 198 exotic barley genotypes were collected from the Gene Bank of the Plant Genetic Resource Institute (PGRI), National Agriculture Research Center (NARC), Islamabad, Pakistan, for the assessment of genetic diversity based on morphological and seed storage proteins. Qualitative and quantitative traits were noted as per IPGRI, 1994 descriptor. Among the quantitative parameters, a high level of genetic variability index was noted in seeds per spike at 79.9% of coefficient of variance followed by biomass per plant which shows 37.4% variance, while minimum variance in quantitative traits was noted in days to germination at 5.4% followed by days to maturity at 3.1% with average mean genetic variation in all quantitative traits at 97.6%. Assay of total seed protein in these exotic accessions was analogue through polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A high level of variation was noted in loci (bands) B26 (0.98%) followed by B25 (0.89%), B24 (0.78%),B23 (0.69%) and B01 (0.52%). A similarly low level of variation was detected in B03 (0.16%) followed by B06 (0.18%), B13 (0.19%), B12 (0.21%), B11 (0.23%), B05 (0.24%), B07 (0.25%), B21 (0.34%), B20 (0.35%), B17 (0.39%). The results indicate that the mean value of variation in these accessions is 97.6%. Further assessments and exploration were suggested for these genotypes in multi-climatic zones to satisfy farmers’ need, breeders’ interest and malt-industrial requirements.

Taxonomically useful descriptors were provided by the banding patterns of seed storage proteins obtained when extracts of bulked, ungerminated seed samples from commercially available North American native species of Festuca were analyzed by sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE). The banding patterns for three species of rough fescues (section Breviaristatae Krivot) indicate that although the taxa are closely related, F. campestris Rydb. (2n = 56) does not appear to be an autoploid of either F. altaica Trin. (2n = 28) or F. hallii (Vasey) Piper (2n = 28). A distinct band corresponding to a molecular weight of 57 000 occurred in the seed protein profiles of all native and commercial samples of Festuca L. analyzed. The profile for F. californica Vasey, questionably section Breviaristatae, also has a band at this position, and is very different from that of F. altaica, F. campestris, and F. hallii. Species-specific banding patterns were observed for F. brachyphylla Schultes, F. saximontana Rydb., F. idahoensis Elmer, and F. trachyphylla (Hackel) Krajina (F. ovina L. s.l., F. longifolia Thuill., F. ovina var. duriuscula auct. amer.). The results support the recognition of subgenus Schedonorus (Beauv.) Peter., and sections Breviaristatae Krivot and Festuca. Key words: Poaceae, Festuca, SDS–PAGE seed proteins.

A qualitative as well as quantitative categorization of seed storage proteins profiles of 23 genotypes of Trigonella foenum- graecum L. were performed by using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) for exploring the level of genetic discrepancy at seed storage protein level. Total soluble proteins were resolved on 10% resolving gel. A dendrogram was constructed on the basis of weight of seed storage proteins, which divide total genotypes into two groups further classified into different sub groups containing different genotypes in them. The bands obtained from gel electrophoresis can serve as a potent tool in discrimination of different genotypes on the basis of their protein content. Proteins with molecular weight 66, 43 and 35 kDa were found in all the genotypes except Fgk-76, PR, Rmt-303, PEB and Rmt-361, The 43 kDa protein band was found missing in Fgk-67, AFg-2, AM-2, AFg-4, Fgk-73, although the protein with 35 kDa weight was present in all the genotypes but not in Rmt-303 same as 63 kDa which is not present in Fgk-70 and 55 kDa protein band was found missing in Fgk-67, Afg-4 and Rmt-361.
