Abstract: The patterns of esterase and peroxidase isoenzymes, subunits of zein-2 fraction and protomers of SDS-protein complex of Zea mays L. × Tripsacum dactyloides L. hybrids and their parents were compared. The study has been made to detect specific to Tripsacum isoesterases and isoperoxidases, zein subunits and SDS-protein protomers which could be used as markers for introgression of gene loci encoding these proteins from Tripsacum into hybrids of Tripsacum with Zea mays. Isoesterases and isoperoxidases as well protomers of SDS-protein complex specific to Tripsacum were detected in all hybrids analyzed. Zein subunits, specific to Tripsacum were detected in some of the analyzed hybrids which i that introgression frequency of the loci encoding proteins studied was different. Chromosome counts taken on the examined hybrids showed the addition of 9 - 13 Tripsacum chromosomes to maize chromosome complement.
