Determination of diversity index for winter triticale cultivars based on comparison of gliadin electrophoretic diagrams
Abstract
Differences between cultivars were evaluated in winter triticale (Dagro, Bolero, Ugo, Malno, Tewo, strain CZR 103/85) by comparing electrophoretic diagrams of gliadins. Percentage shares of particular gliadin subunits were used to prepare a scheme of diagrams for the studied triticale cultivars. On the basis of this scheme the relative diversity index was calculated for each pair of the compared cultivars. The values ranged from 20% to 70%. The indices may be useful in evaluation of degree of genetic differentiation between cultivars and for testing the effectiveness of planned crosses.
