 The polymorphism of prolamin storage proteins was studied in seed samples of 20 historical cultivars of   spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) of Czech and Slovak origin, using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Only two samples were uniform. Most heterogeneity of prolamin patterns was observed in the oldest accessions. By means of a prolamin identity index it was possible to distinguish sister lines from admixtures within the seed samples. The obtained spectra will be used as additional descriptors for the spring barley core collection of the Collection of Genetic Resources of the Agricultural Research Institute Kroměříž, Ltd.

Seasonal changes in cold tolerance and proteins were studied in the leaves of sibling deciduous and evergreen peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. Freezing tolerance [defined as the subzero temperature at which 50% injury occurred (LT50)] was assessed using electrolyte leakage. Proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Electroblots were probed with anti-dehydrin and anti-19-kD peach bark storage protein (BSP) antibodies. Leaf LT50 decreased successively from -5.8 °C on 18 Aug. to -10.3 °C in the evergreen genotype and from -7.0 °C to -15.0 °C in the deciduous genotype by 14 Oct. Protein profiles and immunoblots indicated the accumulation of a 60- and 30-kD protein during cold acclimation in the leaves of deciduous trees; however, levels of these proteins did not change significantly in the evergreen trees. Immunoblots indicate that the 60-kD protein is a dehydrin-like protein. Gel-electrophoresis and immunoblots also indicated that the 19-kD BSP progressively disappeared from summer through fall in leaves of deciduous peach but accumulated to a high level in bark tissues. A similar inverse relationship was not evident in evergreen peach.

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.

Wheat with virus-like symptoms (extracts containing a 33-kDa protein in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, negative in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to wheat streak mosaic virus, and not infectious in a backassay to other wheat) reacted positively to antiserum made against a protein purified from symptomatic corn infected with the High Plains virus (HPV), indicating a serological relationship between the corn and wheat pathogens. The wheat curl mite (WCM, Aceria tosichella Keifer) was identified as the vector of the virus and caused persistent infection of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in greenhouse experiments. The HPV was recovered in the field from naturally infected wheat where the number of HPV-infected plants decreased with increasing distance from the WCM source in volunteer wheat.

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.

Mla Locus

In barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), the Mla locus conditions reaction to the powdery mildew fungus Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei. Enrichment for genetic recombinants in the Mla region is possible by screening for recombination events between the flanking endosperm storage proteins hordeins C and B. Reciprocal crosses were made between the Franger (C.I. 16151) and Rupee (C.I. 16155) lines carrying the (Mla6 + Mla14) and Mla13 alleles, respectively. Recombinants were identified from F2 segregants by analyzing the extracted hordein polypeptides by sodium dodecyl sulphate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two hundred and seventy-six recombinant gametes were identified from the 1800 seeds that were screened. Recombination of Mla alleles was analyzed by inoculating F4 recombinant lines with three isolates of E. graminis (A27, 5874, and CR3), which recognize specific Mla alleles. The linkage order established is Hor1–Mla6–Mla13–Mla14–Hor2. The genetic distances between Hor1–Mla6, Mla6–Mla13, and Mla13–Hor2, obtained using Mapmaker 3.0b F3 intercross analysis, are 3.9, 0.2, and 5.2 cM, respectively.Key words: recombinant, barley, powdery mildew, Mla, hordein.

A fraction of secretion granules has been isolated from rabbit parotid by a procedure which was found to be especially effective in reducing contamination resulting from aggregation and/or cosedimentation of granules with other cell particulates. The fraction, representing 15 percent (on the average) of the total tissue amylase activity, was homogeneous as judged by electron microscopy and contaminated to exceedingly low levels by other cellular organelles as judged by marker enzymatic and chemical assays. Lysis of the granules was achieved by their gradual exposure to hypotonic NaHCO3, containing 0.5 mM EDTA. The content and the membranes separated by centrifugation of the granule lysate were characterized primarily by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis which indicated that the content was composed of a limited number of molecular weight classes of polypeptides of which three bands (having approximate mol wt 58,000, 33, 000, and 12,000) could be considered major components. The gel profile of the membrane subfraction was characterized by 20-30 Coomassie brilliant blue-staining bands of which a single species of mol wt 40,000 was the conspicuous major polypeptide. Two types of experiments employing gel electrophoretic analysis were carried out for identifying and assessing the extent of residual secretory protein adsorbed to purified granule membranes: (a) examination of staining and radioactivity profiles after mixing of radioactive secretion granule extract with nonradioactively labeled granule membranes and (b) comparison of gel profiles of secretion granule extract and granule membranes with those of unlysed secretion granules and secretory protein dischraged from lobules in vitro or collected by cannulation of parotid ducts, the last two samples being considered physiologic secretory standards. The results indicated that the membranes were contaminated to a substantial degree by residual, poorly extractable secretory protein even though assays of membrane fractions for a typical secretory enzyme activity (amylase) indicated quite through separation of membranes and content. Hence, detailed examination of membrane subfractions for residual content species by gel electrophoresis points to the general unity and sensitivity of this technique as a means for accurately detecting a defined set of polypeptides occurring as contaminants in cellular fractions or organelle subfractions.

The prolamin (avenin) patterns of  oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivars released in  the Czech Republic and in the former Czechoslovak Republic were analysed  by acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE).  Forty-nine oat (Avena sativa L.) accessions of domestic origin, maintained in the Czech collection of oat genetic resources, were analysed. The evaluated set contained 18 modern  and 31 old cultivars. Thirty accessions showed a homogeneous prolamin pattern. The other accessions were heterogeneous with two or three different patterns, present at different percentages. Heterogeneity was present in 48% of the old cultivars, but  only in 22% of the modern cultivars. Identity indexes within the heterogeneous accessions were calculated. The index values ranged from 0.09 to 0.75. Only in two heterogeneous cultivars (Dětenický Bílý, Valečovský Bílý) the identity index between their components was higher than 0.6, indicating, that their components were most likely sister lines. All analysed cultivars could be unambiguously distinguished by their prolamin pattern. The obtained prolamin patterns will be used to complete descriptor data of the genetic resources  and might be useful also in oat breeding and research.

The State register of the selection achievements allowed to use on Volga-Vyatka and Middle Volga to regions since 2009 included a grade of winter barley Volga the First. Volga the first – multirow barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), a kind of pallidum, it is received by method of individual selection of a selection sample 18, after mass death winter in 1994. The grade possesses unique adaptive properties, a powerful spring kushcheniye, proteinaceous formula of gordein which didn't meet in the territory of Russia and the former Soviet Union earlier. Long and various test, studying of a grade allows to draw a conclusion on possibility of its cultivation in the Central and Volga region regions of the country. A possible condition of success is the knowledge and observance of a high-quality agrotechnology. The new design of skating rinks and harrows is offered. Volga the First ripens for 10…15 days before summer barley and for 7…12 days before winter wheat. Grain protein content depending on the level of nitric food varies from 8,15% to 16%. The maximum productivity reached 104 c/hectare. During three years, research of Volzhskiy Pervyy cultivation technology were carried out in Kemerovo Agricultural Research Institute (West Siberian region) and during five years in Ulyanovsk Agricultural Research Institute (Srednevolzhskiy region). In the specific natural conditions were identified optimal timing, the rates of Volzhskiy Pervyy seeding. The authors consider it is possible to cultivate in the conditions of the Northen Forest Steppe, Kuznetsovskaya kotlovina When sowing in the second half of the third decade of August with a seeding rate of 5.0 million pieces / ha of еру germination seeds. The same conclusion was drawn in the Ulyanovsk Scientific Research Institute.
