Abstract EN
Heliotropium digynum, is a shrub that has ecological importance.
The height of the plant differs from one population to another and the difference in length of the inflorescence can be attributed to environmental factors, such as rainfall or type of soil and temperature.
To date, no study has shed light on estimation in seed samples of H.
digynum in Saudi Arabia.
So, the aim is to evaluate and characterize the protein patterns of seed storage proteins of H.
digynum to be used as fingerprint of this plant in Saudi Arabia.
It is collected from different locations in the central region of Saudi Arabia and total protein extraction from plant was compared in SDS-PAGE.
The genetic relationships among all cultivars were analyzed using UPGMA and NJ using Total Lab TL and in the same way using Jaccard Similarity Coefficient dendrogram using STATISTICA (ver.8) software.
Results, our data show that amounts of protein are different, although they are of the same type or from the same geographical region.
Amounts ranged between 22 and 1.5 mg/g of dry weight.
Less amount of protein was obtained from the group of samples collected from Dir’iyah area, and the highest amount of protein was from the group of samples collected from Dyrab area in general.
