“…Although care was taken to separate all the Figure 1. Variations detected using Acid-PAGE for some representative samples of Aegilops geniculata; 1: G1, 2: G2, 3: G3, 4: G4, 5: G5, 6: G6, 7: G7, 8: G8, 9: G9, 10: G10, 11: G11, 12: G12, 13: G13, 14: G15, 15: G16 Tanaka et al (2003) and Caballero et al (2004) also reported larger variation in γ-and ω-gliadins than in α-and β-gliadins in Japanese cultivars and in Spanish spelt wheat, respectively. The gene coding for most α and β-gliadins occurs at the Gli-2 loci (Payne 1987); in our study, 35 different combinations were found assuming these two zones together, 34 accessions had a specific combination pattern.…”
