Polyacrylamide-slab gel electrophoresis showed that the nature of peroxidases in wheat is a genetic character; different genomes control the synthesis of specific peroxidases. The growing conditions have no influence on isozyme patterns. Within a single species the electrophoretic patterns of peroxidases may differ from one variety to another. Thus, two classes of Triticum aestivum can be distinguished. With Triticum durum the dissimilarity of enzymograms is particularly important.

AbstractTwelve enzymes (encoded by 14 loci) in liver flukes of Fasciola species originating from Japan (parthenogenetic triploids), Korea (parthenogenetic diploids), the United States of America (USA) and Australia (all sexual diploids) were analysed using starch gel electrophoresis. Variation in electrophoretic patterns between samples was detected at five enzyme loci (Ak, Got, Gpi, 6-Pgd and Pgm-2). Japanese worms (31, of which six were established as uniparental laboratory strains), which reproduce by parthenogenesis, exhibited three different isozyme patterns. This indicates that triploidy has arisen more than once in Japanese flukes. Japanese Fasciola sp. can be separated into three types on morphological grounds. For the six laboratory strains of Japanese worms, the parental morphological type was known. Each of the three isozyme patterns observed was restricted to one morphological type. Most alleles detected in the Japanese triploids were also found in diploid worms from the other countries: the only alleles not represented elsewhere were four at the Got locus and two at the Pgm locus. Flukes from a laboratory strain derived from a single Korean diploid worm resembled the Japanese worms in genotype more closely than did American (seven uniparental laboratory strains) or Australian (30 worms) specimens. Worms from the last two countries were closely related.

AbstractEgg-protein patterns from 23 insect species representing seven orders were obtained by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. The patterns were species specific and highly reproducible. Those for congeneric species were very similar and family resemblances were apparent. The usefulness of egg-protein patterns in phylogenetic studies and in the analysis of closely related species was suggested.

Abstract Background Lupins are cultivated as human consumption grains and forage legumes. The chromosomes of lupins are too small to be karyotyped by conventional techniques, because they reveal a general lack of distinctive cytological features. In the current study, Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) was used to locate 5S and 45S ribosomal gene sites on the chromosomes of Lupinus albus ssp albus, Lupinus albus ssp graecus, Lupnus termis (all with 2n = 50), and Lupinus polyphyllus lindl var. polyphyllus (2n = 48), FISH together with seed storage protein electrophoretic patterns were used to find out the relationship among these species. Results The double-target FISH on the chromosomes of the studied species with rDNA probes revealed that the two types of rRNA genes are located on different chromosomes. The detected loci of rRNA genes partially reflected the taxonomical similarity among the two Lupinus albus subspecies and L. termis. Lupinus polyphyllus lindl var. polyphyllus was exception by having unique large chromosome mostly is covered by one signal of 45S rDNA, whereas its homologous chromosome seems to be normal-sized and have the other 45S rDNA locus. The similarity matrix among the Lupinus species as computed according to Jaccardʼs Coefficient from the SDS-PAGE, showed that L. albus ssp. Albus and L. albus ssp. Graecus are the most similar species (~ 97%), and then comes L. termis, and L. polyphyllus lindl var. polyphylus has been placed in separate clade and still the most related species to it among the studied species is L. termis (~ 70%). Conclusion It could be postulated from FISH and seed storage protein electrophoretic patterns that the relationships among the studied species is as follows, Lupinus albus ssp albus, is the most related species to Lupinus albus ssp graecus then comes Lupnus termis and Lupinus polyphyllus lindl var. polyphyllus at a distal position.

An electrophoretic procedure was developed for discriminating cultivars of Desmodium ovalifolium on the basis of patterns of partially purified seed proteins. Electrophoresis was done on uniform 15% polycrylamide gels in basic (8.9) pH. The method produced satisfactory discrimination of eight cultivars used in its initial evaluation.Key words: Forage legume, Desmodium ovalifolium Guill et Perr., cultivar identification, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis

Oxidized and reduced proteins were prepared from the ocular lenses of sheep, swine, chicken and fish (pike). The proteins were prepared under conditions designed to avoid denaturation and to produce relatively pure compounds. Serologic studies revealed that species specificity is demonstrable in the proteins from chicken and fish lenses, but in the more closely related species (swine and sheep) this characteristic is not so evident. Serologic differences may be detected in the lens preparations from a single species, depending on the redox state of the protein.

Bactérias diazotróficas pertencentes a diferentes espécies podem estar associadas a gramíneas, como o trigo, promovendo incrementos no crescimento e na produtividade de grãos. Foi realizado um experimento, em condições de campo, com o objetivo de avaliar os benefícios e a viabilidade econômica da inoculação de novos isolados homólogos de bactérias diazotróficas endofíticas em genótipos de trigo sob diferentes doses de N. Foram empregados três isolados de bactérias diazotróficas endofíticas (IAC-AT-8-Azospirillum brasiliense, IAC-HT-11-Achromobacter insolitus e IAC-HT-12-Zoogloea ramigera), dois genótipos de trigo (ITD- 19-Triticum durum L. e IAC-370-Triticum aestivum hard L.) e três doses de N (0, 60 e 120 kg ha-1). Foram avaliados, no estádio de perfilhamento e de maturidade fisiológica, a matéria seca, o N acumulado e o índice de eficiência de utilização do N na parte aérea e na colheita; a produtividade de grãos, os componentes de rendimento e os índices de colheita para biomassa e N. No estádio de perfilhamento, somente houve aumento na produção de biomassa com a inoculação de Azospirillum brasiliense e Achromobacter insolitus no genótipo IAC-370, com a adição de N. Entretanto, não houve especificidade dos genótipos de trigo empregados e essas novas bactérias diazotróficas endofíticas para as demais caracaterísticas avaliadas. Houve aumento no acumulado de N na espiga com a inoculação de Azospirillum brasiliense. A inoculação de Achromobacter insolitus propiciou aumento da produtividade de grãos, na maior dose de N utilizada (120 kg ha-1). A inoculação, embora não tenha substituído a adubação nitrogenada, reverteu-se em lucro para o agricultor.
