Compare the grouping of winter wheat lines using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis data of seed storage proteins and quantitative traits data

Plant modifier can have a great chance of success in him breeding programs with choosing the appropriate materials and the variety exist for him. Good understanding of the genetic diversity and classification of germplasm is necessary to select suitable parents for breeding purposes. In this study, the pattern of storage protein electrophoresis of winter wheat lines and data obtained from quantitative traits measurement were used to investigate the genetic diversity and classification of a set of promising wheat lines and control cultivars (Shahriar). For this purpose, the number of 9 promising lines with 1 control cultivar (Shahriar) was studied in a randomized complete block design with two replications. The experiments were done in the Biotechnology Laboratory, Islamic Azad University of Ardabil. Cluster analysis respectively placed genotypes into three groups by Wardʹs method for farm data and by UPGMA method for electrophoresis data based on the jacquard similarity matrix. Compare the grouping obtained from cluster analysis results of the electrophoresis data with results of the cluster analysis of morphological data showed that 10 genotypes were placed in the similar groups, in other words, grouping based on morphological characteristics and protein bands was consistent 35% together. The data from electrophoresis can somewhat have ability to complement the morphological data. Moreover, repeating the same experiments is recommended to achieve accurate results with a greater number of characters.
