ELECTROPHORETIC EVIDENCE FOR SUBGENERIC AND SECTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS OF SOME SPECIES IN VICIA L.
ADEL R. EL-SHANSHOURY AND SAMIA A. SOLIMAN
Abstract
Electrophoretic profiles of native seed protein of 26 species of the genus Vicia representing sections Australe, Vicilla and Cracca in subgenus Vicilla and sections Hypechusa, Peregrinae and Faba in subgenus Vicia have been revealed by PAGE. Numerical analysis of the results indicated that the delimitation of the majority of the examined species agree with their previous classification based on morphological characters. However the grouping of some species i.e., V. dasycarpa, V. haeniscyamus, V. dichronanrha and V. peregrina was found to be anomalous to earlier classifications. V. michauxii is also clearly delimited from the other species.
