Electrophoretic survey of malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) in Opuntia basilaris showed intraspecific polymorphism. Further experiments with microbody malate dehydrogenase-specific antiserum suggest that the polymorphism occurs in microbody malate dehydrogenase independent of the soluble and mitochondrial forms. The pattern of polymorphism is one expected from a two-allele Mendelian system.
