Abstract

Starch gel electrophoresis of leaf tissue samples was used to distinguish pineapple [ Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.] cultivars. Isozyme genotypes at two peroxidase and three phosphoglucomutase loci allowed the unique identification of 15 of the 27 cultivars examined. The hypotheses that some cultivars originated as either sports or hybrids were confirmed by the allozyme data.
