Abstract

α-Amylase isozymes were detected via electrophoretic separation in a Tris-glycine polyacrylamide gel system (pH 8.4). Three chromosome 6B loci controlling the α-amylase isozyme composition were identified by studying the grain α-amylase patterns in an F→∞ self-pollinating population of winter common wheat (Donskoi Mayak). The loci were found to take the following order in the long arm of chromosome 6B: cen. cen.—α-Amy-B3—α-Amy-B6—α-Amy-B1
