Phosphogluco mutase — a biochemical marker for group 4 chromosomes in the Triticinae

Abstract
Structural genes for the isozymes of phosphogluco mutase (PGM) (EC 2.7.5.1) have been located on chromosome arms 4Aα, 4BL and 4DS of hexaploid wheat. These results support the homoeologies observed among these chromosome arms and also support the notion of conservation of gene synteny groups within the Triticinae.
