Abstract

A method of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of proteins from Douglas fir needles is described. Extraction in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 2-mercaptoethanol followed by heating at 100 degrees C produces reliable two-dimensional gels which are convenient for genetic studies. Three genotypes from different geographical origins have been compared: among 225 loci expressed, 22 display regulatory variations and 7 show allelic variations. Thus it is now possible to undertake the genetic study of Douglas fir using this powerful technique.
