Differentiation of rice varieties by electrophoresis of embryo protein.
Variations in the embryo proteins separated by SDS-PAGE have been observed in 43 cultivated varieties of Oryza sativa L. Cluster and discriminant analysis applied to both protein components and morphological characters indicate that knowledge of the differences in embryo proteins can improve our understanding of genetic affinity and make it easier to differentiate between varieties of similar genetic backgrounds.
