Seed Storage Proteins in Solanaceae and Cucurbitaceae Species
- 1 Acad. D. Kostoff Institute of Genetics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria
Electrophoretic analyses of non-reduced and reduced seed storage proteins from Solanaceae and Cucurbitaceae species and cultivars were performed. High molecular disulfide bonded complexes between intermediary subunits of 11S globulins previously detected in Capsicum annuum cultivars, were found in Solanum melongena cultivars as well. The data obtained might be used for further elucidation of peculiarities of the 11S globulins in dicotyledonous plants.
Keywords: Capsicum annuum; eggplant; electrophoretic spectra; globulins; intermediary 11S subunits; oligomers; pepper; Solanum melongena
Subjects: Capsicum annuum; cultivar and genotype differences, storage proteins; egg plant, storage proteins; globulins, intermediary 11S subunits, storage proteins; oligomers, storage proteins; pepper, storage proteins; proteins, storage, seed; seed, storage protein; Solanum melongena
