Storage seed protein of Pant A 134, UPAS 120, ICPL 84023 and of C. acutifolius wild species and their hybrids were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Wide variability between parents and hybrids revealed a wide variability of electrophoretic pattern of seed protein. SDS-PAGE analysis showed the absence of 38 kD band in hybrid and presence of additional bands (47.5, 32.5, 17.0, 15.0 kD) in hybrids. A specific band at 71.5 kD was common among parents as well as hybrids.
