Rk. Maiti et al., ELECTROPHORETIC ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN PROFILE OF SOME GLOSSY AND NONGLOSSY SORGHUM LINES - A PRELIMINARY-STUDY, Phyton, 56, 1994, pp. 105-107
Sorghum lines showed variations in protein profile. Three types of pol
ypeptides differing in molecular weight were detected, A (106 KDa), B
(82 KDa) C (54 KDa) The latter was detected in some glossy lines. Nong
lossy lines showed the presence of polypeptides of higher molecular we
ight (106 KDa). The low molecular weight KDa protein may be associated
with resistance mechanisms to shootfly and other stress factors.
