Abstract
A cDNA clone that reveals a high level of polymorphism between wheat v arieties was isolated from a wheat cDNA library. When hybridized to Dr aI-, EcoRV- and HindIII digested DNA this clone, gbx3832, enables us t o distinguish 42 different patterns among 48 varieties: 37 varieties a re clearly identified, the remaining 11 are divided into five groups. Base-sequence analysis of the clone reveals 72-74 % sequence identity to mRNAs encoding thaumatin-like proteins from different cereals.
