Abstract
ELECTROPHORETIC studies of egg white of domestic fowl have been repeatedly carried out by the Tiselius moving boundary method in the past1. Forsythe and Foster2 working with pooled egg albumen samples indicated that small but statistically significant differences could be established between egg white patterns of six different genetic lines of chickens. The high resolving power of starch-gel electrophoresis, with the slightly modified discontinuous buffer system of Poulik3, was used recently by J. E. Lush for the investigations of egg albumen patterns4. He found a genetically conditioned polymorphism in the egg white from 16 closed populations of hens.
