Abstract

---

The endosperm storage proteins of 127 wheat landraces collected from different parts of Pakistan were fractionated by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to determine their high molecular weight (HMW) glutenin subunit composition. A total of 13 different subunits were found in the present set of wheat germplasm. Of these alleles detected at all the Glu-1 loci, three belong to Glu-A1, five each to Glu B1 and Glu D1 locus. Subunit null controlled by locus Glu-A1
