Abstract
S-allele genotypes of nine apple (Malus xdomestica Borkh.) cultivars were i dentified using S-allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restricti on fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. A new S-allele, Sg, was pr oposed to be present in 'American Summer Pearmain', 'Indo', 'Kitanosachi', and 'Meku 10'. This allele is very similar to Sf at the nucleotide sequence (92%) and deduced amino acid sequence (94%) levels.
