Abstract
We have measured the numbers of genes coding for the three seed storage proteins, vicilin, convicilin and legumin, in a number of Pisum genotypes of variant protein composition. No difference in gene number existed among P. sativum genotypes for any of the proteins. There were differences in the number of genes coding for individual proteins with approximately 11 genes (per haploid genome) for vicilin, 8 genes for legumin and 1 gene for convicilin.Keywords
