Description Seed storage protein markers being less sensitive to environmental fluctuation than phenological traits,
has been successfully employed in assessing divergence in many crop plants. The present study was
aimed to find out correlation of seed storage protein markers in twenty eight Indian sesame cultivars
with their agro-ecological zone of adoption and their seed coat colour. Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate
Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) revealed altogether twenty two protein bands of
which thirteen were polymorphic with varied molecular weights. Specific bands, relating to specific
agro-ecologies were found. Moreover, bands of 93.40 KDa and 68.05 KDa were found associated with
production of darker shades of seed coat colour. Clustering pattern based on protein similarity value
offered no definite grouping, either to specific agro-ecological zones of adoption or to specific seed coat
colour. It is concluded that individual protein banding pattern can be linked to agro-ecological adoption
zone and seed coat colour which is helpful in divergence and phylogenetic study in sesame.
