Abstract
On the basis of immunochemical analyses of the main reserve protein ofPh. vulgaris, euphaseolin, in numerous cultivars ofPh. vulgaris, in additional 23Phaseolus species, and several representatives of further genera of Viciaceae and on the basis of the comparison of these data with morphological and genetical data the authors propose to separate the sectionEuphaseolus characterized by the presence of the protein euphaseolin. The species characterised by euphaseolin are closely related and capable of being crossed. The proposal requires an additional formal completion from the point of view of the conventions of classical systematies. Further the questions of the taxonomical extent of various protein characters and the problematies of the so-called large and small protein characters are discussed.
Na základě imunochemických analys hlavní zásobní bílkovinyPh. vulgaris euphaseolinu u velkého počtu kultivarůPhaseolus vulgaris, dalších 23 druhůPhaseolus a několika zástupců dalších rodůViciaceae a srovnáváním těchto údajů s údajl morfologickými a genetickými autoři navrhují vydělení sekceEuphaseolus, charakterisované přítomností bílkoviny euphaseolinu. Druhy charakterisované euphaseolinem jsou si blízce příbuzné, jsou křižitelné. Návrh vyžaduje ještě formální doplnění z hlediska zvyklostí klasické systematiky.
V článku jsou dále diskutovány otázky taxonomické šíře různých bílkovinných znaků.
