Storage protein dynamics in zygotic and somatic embryos of white fir

Composition and accumulation patterns of storage proteins in female gametophyte and embryos of the white fir (Abies concolor) were investigated during embryogenesis and germination of mature seeds using SDS-PAGE and immunological approach. Altogether 9 major and minor protein components with molecular masses of 14, 16, 22, 24, 27, 30, 35, 38, and 43 kDa were detected in female gametophytes and 9 protein bands in the embryos with the molecular sizes of 14, 16, 22, 24, 25, 27, 34, 38, and 43 kDa. The species seems to deviate in this respect from other representatives of Pinaceae. A conspicuous increase of storage protein synthesis was observed at the stage of fully cellularized female gametophytes and at the cotyledonary stage of embryo development. There exists a high degree of similarity between storage protein profiles of white fir zygotic and somatic embryos. Successive stages of somatic embryogenesis exhibited a high degree of similarity of storage proteins except for cotyledonary stage when a noticeable increase in storage protein synthesis was registered. Conversely, during germination of somatic embryos, an overwhelming majority of storage proteins was depleted.
