Barley ( Hordeum distichum L.) germinated at a series of four temperatures was found to contain seedling basic proteins which differed when separated in polyacrylamide gel by electrophoresis. The conclusion drawn from the observations is that the protein variation is the result of temperature treatment. It is suggested that the basic protein variation is an indication of physiological differences existing in the barley seedlings grown at the different temperatures.
