In hexaploid tritordeum, the storage proteins of advanced progenies from two crosses between three hexaploid tritordeum lines were analysed. The effects of allelic variation at the Glu‐B1 , Glu‐H ch 1 and Glu‐A3/Glu‐B3 loci on gluten strength, as measured by the sodium dodecyl sulphate sedimentation test, were determined using seeds from both crosses. Neither of the two alleles found at the Glu‐B1 locus in the crosses analysed had significant effects on gluten strength, but allelic variation at the Glu‐H ch 1 and Glu‐A3/Glu‐B3 loci showed significant differences in effects on gluten strength.
