Changes in protein patterns during growth ofVigna unguiculata (L.) WALP. callus tissues
- 1 Centre of Advanced Study, Department of Botany, University of Calcutta, Calcutta, India
Alterations in protein pattern were observed in the callus tissues ofVigna unguiculata (L) Walp. up to tenth passage from its initiation. A gradual increase in quantity of protein was found up to sixth passage of culture. Decrease in the quantity of protein after eight months of culture might be correlated with the cytodifferentiation of the tissues. It has been recorded that with the initiation of morphogenesis there is an increase in the number and intensity of protein bands at the anionic end of the polyacrylamide gel.
