Figure 13.10 SDS-PAGE of seed storage proteins of T. aestivum L., cv S. ranozreika 2 and their mutant forms. Lane 1- control of T. aestivum, 2,4,5, 6, and 7 are lanes of mutant forms type sphaerococcum. The HMW-glutenin subunits are with high weight (more than 160,000), and well separated from other prolamins [13].
