Alcohol dehydrogenase is highly polymorphic in many plant and animal species. Here we report evidence that the naturally occurring, electrophoretically detectable allozyme variants of the AdhlB locus in B. mollis can respond differentially to environmental stresses. It is argued that alcohol dehydrogenase activity is specifically involved in response to these stresses. Crude extracts of predominantly selfed seeds sampled from plants of known Adh1B genotype were assayed for their ADH activity in the forward and backward reactions. The seeds from Adh~B Adh~B plants produced extracts about 12 % less active in both directions than seeds from their Adh~BAdh~B counterparts. Such Adh~BAdh~B plants were also shown to produce about 13% more dry matter when grown under continuous flooding in the greenhouse whereas no difference between genotypes was detected in control pots. The seeds of Adh~B Adh~B plants showed an advantage over the alternative homozygotes in more rapid germination at 2�C, but no difference was found at 15�C. Thus the variants are differentially adapted, and this is likely to playa role in the maintenance of the polymorphism in natural populations.
