Theoretical and Applied Genetics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

In the analysis of stigma glycoproteins by cellulose acetate electrofocusing in self-incompatible crucifers, the staining method of the glycoproteins, described in the earlier report, has been improved by using Con A — peroxidase reactions to obtain a permanent profile of band patterns which are visible under day-light conditions. Identifying S alleles by the corresponding S-glycoproteins can be facilitated by the present S-glycoprotein analysis.
