Eight enzyme systems coding for 14 loci were assayed in <em>Juniperus phoenicea</em>. Mendelian inheritance was confirmed for allozymes at 10 loci (Fle 2, Gdh, Got 1, Idh, Mdh 1, Mdh 2, Men 1, Pgi, Pgm I, Pgm 2) by testing the fit of band-pattern segregation in macrogametophytes from heterozygous trees to the expected I: I ratio. Linkage relationships were examined for 21 pairs of allozyme loci and these pairs do not appear to be linked in our material.
