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.

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.

Chromosome Marker

A monoclonal antibody (P24B) to a wheat gliadin protein coded by a gene on the short arm of chromosome 1B was used as a chromosome marker. Somatic chromosome number for the 1B chromosome, as predicted by the level of binding of the antibody to extracts from seeds of single cross F2 and testcross F1 populations, was confirmed with sodium dodecyl sulfate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and root-tip analysis. The implications of monoclonal antibodies as tools for cytogenetic analysis are discussed.Key words: polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, aneuploid, cytogenetics, seed storage proteins.

Self Pollination

Self-incompatibility, a prefertilization event, and self-sterility, a postfertilization event, have both been suggested as causes for differences in seed set between cross- and self-pollinated florets in Lotus corniculatus L. Ovary protein subunits of selfed, crossed, and unpollinated florets of L. corniculatus cv. Mirabel were studied using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Banding patterns differed for all three conditions. Ovary protein differences were found prior to the time fertilization is known to occur, thereby providing evidence that self-incompatibility is at least partially responsible for the reduced seed set after self-pollination.

Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) was used for analysis of isozyme banding patterns of leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), phosphoglucomutase (PGM), phosphoglucoisomerase (PGI), esterase (EST) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD) in strawberry leaves. The extracts prepared from young leaf tissues using polytron homogenization and an extraction buffer containing 15 mg ml−1 dithiothreitol (DTT) and 10% insoluble polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP-6755) gave best resolution for these enzymes. The influence of plant age and various growing environments on the stability of isozyme phenotypes was examined. The isozyme banding patterns of 6-PGD were found to vary with the change in growing environment as well as age of the plants. EST produced different banding patterns in greenhouse and tissue culture leaves. However, the isozyme phenotypes of LAP, PGM and PGI remained stable under all the conditions tested. Using a combination of these three stable enzymes, it was possible to distinguish eight strawberry cultivars under both tissue culture and greenhouse conditions.

Discrimination of lentil cultivars was achieved by analysis of seed protein by two types of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Cultivars of lentil were discriminated by the presence or absence of diagnostic bands. Electrophoregrams of six seed lots of the cultivar Eston were identical and unaffected by growing conditions.Key words: Lens culinaris Medic, seed proteins, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, cultivar identification

AbstractPolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the thoraces of adult Glossina morsitans morsitans Westwood revealed five octanol dehydrogenase (ODH, E.C. 1.1.1.73) phenotypes (and a sixth was predicted) in males and females, two arginine phosphokinase (APK, E.C. 2.7.3.3) phenotypes in males and three APK phenotypes in females. Each enzyme was postulated to be under the control of a single locus; Odh with three alleles on an autosome and Apk with two alleles on the X-chromosome. Allele frequencies were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in our colony, and breeding experiments provided direct evidence for single locus control of each enzyme. The polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis technique described permits determination of banding patterns for xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase, ODH, and APK from a single individual.

Abstract In the last 10 to 15 yr, the development of biotechnology and molecular techniques has allowed great advancements toward the identification of cultivars among plant species. In legumes, the success of cultivar identification depends on the species under investigation, the type and variability of genetic material found in cultivars, and the technology used for investigations. In this study, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was used to assess diversity of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) seed protein profiles. The objectives of this investigation were a) to assess diversity of protein profiles in peanuts for cultivar identification using SDS-PAGE and b) to determine the extent of variability of seed storage proteins (SSP) among samples of cultivars originating from different locations. The first study included 34 cultivars grown at Lewiston, NC and the second one included nine cultivars grown at six locations. The results of both studies indicated that it is possible to differentiate between subspecies but not to associate a particular profile with only one specific cultivar. Within subspecies, cultivars clustered in more than one group and most cultivars that grouped together were genetically related.
