Fifty-five currently licensed Canadian cultivars and some parental genotypes were analyzed by starch-gel electrophoresis for esterase isozyme patterns and extent of polymorphism for these isozymes. Each cultivar was assigned to one of nine different patterns observed. Fifty-one percent (28) of the cultivars exhibited polymorphic isozyme patterns. The polymorphism was a varietal characteristic and apparently not associated with the age of the cultivar or area of adaptability.

Naphthyl Acetate

The esterase isozyme patterns for irradiated and non-irradiated soybean seed and seedlings were determined by starch gel electrophoresis. Patterns were determined for cotyledons, hypocotyl, epicotyl, first pair of leaves, and roots. Two different esterase systems, E1 and E2, were detected by using appropriate substrates. E1 produces three anodic bands with both α- and β-naphthyl acetate. E2 acts only on α-naphthyl acetate producing three cathodic bands. Radiation did not change the patterns. Results indicate that esterase isozymes are more abundant in the aerial than in the underground portion of developing seedlings.

Gel Isoelectric Focusing

A range of laboratory methods was examined for their ability to distinguish between 19 barley cultivars currently grown in Australia. Aleurone colour, revealed after mechanical or chemical dehulling, differentiated Abyssinian, Atlas, Cape and Corvette from the other cultivars. Peroxidase and phenol testing were not useful. Seven different patterns were obtained for the hordeins of lowest mobility by starch gel electrophoresis. Further distinction was provided by flat gel isoelectric focusing of the water-soluble and hordein proteins for which 13 different pattern-groupings were obtained. The two electrophoretic techniques complemented one another, so that the use of both methods left only a few cultivars that could not be distinguished.

Liver Flukes

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.

More than 170 pecan [Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch] cultivars were evaluated formalate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucose isomerase, phosphoglucomutase, leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), and diaphorase (DIA). Isozymes of LAP were observed in two regions after starch gel electrophoresis. The faster region of activity (Lap-1) was polymorphic and consistently expressed in leaves, wood, and roots. Controlled crosses suggest that Lap-1 is simply inherited and controlled by at least two alleles. DIA was well resolved and storable only from leaf material and produced a complex banding pattern. The ability to differentiate among cultivars by isozymes was good. The 177 cultivars sorted into 72 classes. Forty of the cultivars (23%) possessed a unique series of isozyme patterns. Most cultivars (124 of 177) shared common banding patterns with less than four other cultivars. From the inheritance models of four isozymes, some historical pedigrees can be questioned. Most notably,' Western Schley' could not have been parented by `San Saba' based on the inheritance of Mdh-1 and Lap-1.

SummaryWhen urea or ε-amino caproic acid were used as solublizing agents for plasminogen in electrophoretic experiments, only one broad band of the proenzyme was obtained on acetate cellulose, in starch block, and in acrylamide gel. In starch gel electrophoresis, however, both forms of plasminogen – the native or euglobulin and Kline’s or Pseudoglobulin plasminogen – separated into six bands. These migrated toward the cathode at room temperature in borate or veronal buffer in the alkaline range and showed full activity in fibrinagar-streptokinase plates.

ABSTRACT The isozymic patterns of tyrosine aminotransferase, NADP malate dehydrogenase, NADP isocitrate dehydrogenase, and tetrazolium oxidase were examined by starch-gel electrophoresis in Tetrahymena pyriformis, syngen 1. The genetics of the alleles controlling these enzymes was studied through a breeding program. Each enzyme locus was shown to assort vegetatively, as do other loci in this organism. A detailed analysis of the assortment process for the tyrosine aminotransferase locus indicated that the rate of stabilization of heterozygotes into pure types was essentially identical to previously-reported rates for other loci.
