Despitenew sequencing technologies and the amount of data generated daily, PR-10 proteins have not been discovered in everyplant species. To describe genomic variability by the -omics sciences, it is necessary to screen an undiscovered members of thegroup, map ypr-10 genes in genome and determine sequence variabilities. In this study Bet v 1 based amplified profile (BBAP)method was used to analyse the variability of 14 vegetable species (Brassica oleracea in 4 varieties) and to compare generatedpolymorphism among them. For all of the analysed species, a total number of generated amplicons was 162. The most differentprofiles were generated by Pastinaca sativa and Capsicum annuum, the highest similarity was between Apium graveolens andB. oleracea var. capitata. New type of genic molecular markers was applied successfully and proved to be an effective techniqueto map variability of PR-10 group.Keywords: PR-10, Bet v 1 homologue, vegetable, DNA marker, cross-reaction, allergy, genic molecular markerReferencesANDERSEN, M.B.S. et al.
