Abstract

A study was made of the genetic variability of 101 barley populations belonging to the four, wild, Spanish species of the genusHordeum (the autogamousH. marinum subspp.marinum andgussoneanum, andH. murinum subspp.murinum andleporinum, plus the allogamous speciesH. bulbosum andH. secalinum). Electrophoresis of endosperm proteins was performed using a large number of individuals from each population sampled, in order to determine intra- and interpopulational variation. The distribution of variability observed by population and taxonomic unit, is closely related to the breeding system.Hordeum bulbosum showed the greatest intrapopulational variability andH. marinum subsp.gussoneanum the least. In contrast to the autogamous species, the allogamous species showed low levels of interpopulational variation.
