title: The chromosomal locations of leaf peroxidase genes in hexaploid wheat, rye and barley.
abstract: Eight leaf peroxidase isozymes were distinguished by IEF in 'Chinese Spring'. Two genes which control the production of three of these isozymes were located on chromosome arms 1BS and 1DS by nullisomic analysis. These loci probably form part of a homoeoallelic series and have been designated Per-B1 and Per-D1 respectively. Analysis of chromosome 1B short arm terminal deletion stocks indicated that the Per-B1 locus is located between the nucleolar organiser region and another isozyme marker, Hk-B1. Two variant leaf peroxidase phenotypes were distinguished in a small sample of hexaploid wheat varieties. Analysis of wheat-alien addition and substitution lines identified homoeologous loci in rye (Per-R1) and barley (Per-H1).
