Using electrophoresis, in 114 recombinant hybrid lines of the mapping population of spring bread wheat and in 2 parental forms, 7 esterase isoenzymes were found: A1-A7 (Mr 93-138 kDa). According to their esterase composition, all samples were subdivided into 17 zymotypes. Isoforms A4 and A6 are pre-sent in all zymotypes, i.e. are monomorphic. The other 5 isozymes provide a high level of polymorphism in the population. The majority of genotypes belong to the zymotype Gr. 1 (27%), which includes 6 isoforms. Among them there are isoforms A1 and A7, characteristic only for each of the parent forms, which indicates the codominant inheritance of these isoenzymes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
