Patterns of gliadin proteins extracted from parents and inbred lines from the second backcross of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) cv. Pitic 62 to cv. Neepawa were compared by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in aluminum lactate–lactic acid buffer (pH 3.1). Of the 26 band locations identified, 19 showed differences between the two cultivars. Nine bands appeared to be controlled by single genes, while the segregation ratios for the other 10 bands suggested that each was controlled by two genes. A group of five bands appeared to be inherited as a unit, as did a second group of three bands. There was evidence of linkage between the genes controlling several bands. Results are discussed in relation to cultivar identification in wheat.

Composition of gliadins encoded by Gli-D1 allele as well polymorphisms of Gli-D1 allele investigated in 25 wheat cultivars by using acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Electrophoregrams obtained by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were used for estimation variability of gliadin components and identification of gliadin blocks. Five gliadin blocks encoded by different alleles at Gli-D1 locus were apparently expressed and identified. Gliadin blocks differed according to number of components and their molecular mass. Variability of determined block components indicates that existing polymorphisms of gliadins alleles. Frequency of identified 5 alleles at Gli-D1 locus was in ratio from 4% to 52%. The highest frequency of b allele and the of g allele was found.

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.

Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to study seed proteins in 4 pairs of reciprocal F1 isogenic hybrids of hexaploid triticales differing only in their source of cytoplasm. One member of each reciprocal pair possessed the cytoplasm of hexaploid (6x) wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell), the other, the cytoplasm from tetraploid (4x) wheat (T. turgidum L). Qualitative as well as quantitative differences were observed in the electrophoretic patterns of the albumins and globulins. High molecular weight proteins (> 34,000 daltons) were synthesized in triticale with 6x wheat cytoplasm in greater quantity than in triticale with 4x wheat cytoplasm. Differences in the patterns of gliadin and reduced glutenin of the reciprocal triticale populations were quantitative. The relevance of these findings to seed development in triticales is discussed.

Twenty common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars were classified into two groups based on the presence or absence in their electrophoregrams of two gliadin bands separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The two groups were compared for quality and agronomic characteristics evaluated during 6 yr of testing. The group 1 cultivars (band 40 present, 43.5 absent) had weaker gluten properties and lower loaf volume than cultivars in group 2 (band 40 absent, 43.5 present). No significant difference between the groups was found for protein content or grain yield. The present data are discussed in relation to similar results obtained by other authors for durum wheat cultivars.

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

This review summarizes the biological and ecological factors of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that contribute to trait movement including the ability to volunteer, germination and establishment characteristics, breeding system, pollen movement, and hybridization potential. Although wheat has a short-lived seedbank with a wide range of temperature and moisture requirements for germination and no evidence of secondary dormancy, volunteer wheat populations are increasing in relative abundance and some level of seed persistence in the soil has been observed. Hexaploid wheat is predominantly self-pollinating with cleistogamous flowers and pollen viability under optimal conditions of only 0.5 h, yet observations indicate that pollen-mediated gene flow can and will occur at distances up to 3 km and is highly dependent on prevailing wind patterns. Hybridization with wild relatives such as A. cylindrica Host., Secale cereale L., and Triticum turgidum L. is a serious concern in regions where these species grow in field margins and unmanaged lands, regardless of which genome the transgene is located on. More research is needed to determine the long-term population dynamics of volunteer wheat populations before conclusions can be drawn with regard to their role in trait movement. Seed movement has the potential to create adventitious presence (AP) on a larger scale than pollen, and studies tracing the movement of wheat seed in the grain handling system are needed. Finally, the development of mechanistic models that predict landscape-level trait movement are required to identify transgene escape routes and critical points for gene containment in various cropping systems. Key words: Triticum, coexistence, gene flow, genetically-engineered, herbicide-resistant, trait confinement
