Summary
Ten isozymes were analyzed in nucellar calli of nine Citrus species and cultivars and roots of the corresponding apomictic seedlings. The zymograms obtained can be divided into three groups: a) isozyme patterns similar in both calli and roots, b) isozyme patterns similar in calli but variable in roots, and c) isozyme patterns variable in both calli and roots. Analysis of these ten isozyme systems may facilitate identification of fusion products in Citrus.
