Genetic Fingerprinting of seven Lathyrus species

Abstract

A- Protein profiles: - Water-soluble protein (WSP) in the seven Lathyrus species showed a total number of 29 bands. Based on UPGMA calculation, it was found that the relationships between the seven Lathyrus species were as follows: L. ochrus, L. clymenum, L. sativus, L. aphaca, L. cicera, L. tingitanus and L. annuus. On the water-non soluble protein level, a total number of 25 bands was found in the seven Lathyrus species. The relationships between the seven Lathyrus species were as follows: L. ochrus, L. clymenum, L. aphaca, L. annuus L. cicera, L. tingitanus and L. sativus. A total number of 32 bands for seed albumin protein were detected in the seven Lathyrus species. The relationships between the seven Lathyrus specres were as follows, L. ochrus, L. aphaca, L. clymenum, L. tingitanus, L. annuus, L. sativus and L. cicera. A total number of bands was 23 in the seven Lathyrus species on the level of seed globulin proteins. The relationships between the seven Lathyrus species were as follows: L. ochrus, L. clymenum, L. aphaca, L. annuus, L. cicera, L. sativus and L. tingitanus Analysis the data of all seed proteins together (water soluble, water non­ soluble, seed albumins and seed globulins) reflected the following relationships: L. ochrus, L. clymenum, L. aphaca, L. annuus, L. cicera, L. tingitanus and L. sativus.
