Chromosomal location of structural genes controlling isozymes in Hordeum chilense

Abstract
Polyacrylamide and starch gel electrophoresis of esterase (EST), glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and phosphoglucomutase (PGM) isozymes in Hordeum chilense, Triticum turgidum conv. durum, the amphiploid H. chilense X T. turgidum (Tritordeum), and the durum wheat/H. chilense monosomic addition lines revealed the chromosomal location of one EST locus, two GOT loci and one PGM locus. Loci Est-Hch1 and Got-Hch2 were found on chromosome 6Hch,Got-Hch3 on chromosome 3Hch, and Pgm-Hch1 on chromosome 4Hch. These results lend evidence for the assumed homoeology relationships between chromosomes of Triticeae species.
