STUDIES ON INHERITANCE OF SOME ISOZYMES IN LENTIL (LENS CULINARIS)
Abstract
Inheritance of three isozymes i.e., Leucine aminopeptidase-1, Phosphoglucoisomerase-1, and Phosphoglucomutase-2 in lentil was investigated. The plants were grown in greenhouse and the isozyme analysis was done by starch gel electrophoresis. X2 procedure was applied to test the goodness-of-fit for the observed and hypothesized ratios. All the three isozymes showed a monogenic inheritance pattern with co-dominant alleles for fast and slow allozymes. Heterozygous plants can be recognized at early stages and selfed plants may be discarded immediately. Their use in lentil improvement has been discussed.
