Ditelocentric accessions of the Chinese Spring cultivar of Triticum aestivum were analysed electrophoretically for peptidase (PEPT) and amino peptidase (AMP = LAP) activity. Isozymic activity was missing in the accessions CSDT6AS and CSDT6BS when stained for PEPT. This was taken as evidence that the structural genes encoding these isozymes are located on the long arms of chromosomes 6A and 6B. These genes have been named Pept-A1 and Pept-B1, respectively. Isozymic activity was missing in the CSDT6BL accession when stained for AMP. This result reconfirms the previously published location of the gene Amp-B1 on the short arm of chromosome 6B and demonstrates that the two sets of loci are clearly different.
