Assessment of some chemical indicators for some cultivated Egyptian cotton Gossypium baradense L. varieties
Abstract: Laboratory tests were conducted to characterize the chemical composition on seed samples from the three extra long stable G45, G70 and G88 and the six long stable cultivars G80, G83, G85, G86, G89 and G90 which represent all the nine cultivated Egyptian cotton varieties during 2002 planting seasons. Each variety was represented with two seed classes. In addition to the determination of total proteins, carbohydrates and oil percentages, the seed storage proteins were separated according to their molecular weight using sodium dodecylesulphate gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) method. The free fatty acids also were estimated as an index of seed quality. It was apparent that there were significant differences between varieties as well as between seed classes of the same varieties.
