Electrophoretic Characterization and the Relationship Between Some Egyptian Cruciferae
E. A. Kamel, H.Z. Hassan and S.M. Ahmed

Abstract: The present study was carried out on 17 Egyptian taxa of the Cruciferae representing 10 genera and 13 species collected from different localities. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was employed to characterize those taxa. The data obtained were analyzed by the NTsys-pc program package using the UPGMA clustering method. The produced dendrogram from SDS-PAGE analysis showed a close affinity and the monophyllay among the species of the genera; Enarthrocarpus Labill., Farsetia Turra, Zilla Forssk. and the paraphyllaly within the species of the genus Brassica L.
