Abstract: | The genetic distances between two cultivated wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties (Martonvásári 9, Martonvásári 15), a Martonvásári 9 line possessing the crossability gene krl, and 21 accessions of T. timopheevi Zhuk. and T. araraticum Jakubz. were estimated, based on agro-morphological, physiological and biochemical analysis of data. Cluster analysis based on Mahalanobis' D2 values was applied. All 21 accessions of T. timopheevi and T. araraticum could be classified into eight clusters. Clusters I and II consisted of all the T. timopheevi, while T. araraticum was located in six clusters. Discriminant analysis was applied to test significant differences between cluster pairs. The genetic distance (GD) based on the electrophoretic data of gliadins indicated two types of electrophoregrams in T. timopheevvi, distinguished as groups A and B. T. araraticum accessions were variable as regards the spectra. Mean, minimum and maximum GD were estimated within and between different wheat groups based on acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. |
