Soluble (non-reducing) and non-soluble (reduced) protein profiles of nine taxa of Vicia species are V. sepium L., V. peregrina L., V. hybrida L. and V. sativa L. subsp. nigra (L.) Ehrh. from Sect. Vicia, V. cassubica L. and V. cracca L. subsp. cracca from Sect. Cracca, V. tetrasperma (L.) Schreb. and V. hirsuta (L.) S. F. Gray. from Sect. Ervum, and V. bithynica L. from Sect. Faba were studied. . The non-reducing protein profile from the seeds exhibited a major set of proteins with molecular masses in the range of 66- 34.7 kDa, and the reduced protein profile showed major proteins with molecular masses in the range of 66- 45 kDa. Spectrophotometric determinations of non-reduced protein amount was found significantly different (P=0.05) in the seeds of V. hirsuta, V. sativa subsp. nigra, and V. bithynica while the remaining species were not determined significantly different. As for reduced protein amount, the amount of reduced protein of V. hirsuta was found significantly different among the species (P=0.05). The highest level of non-reduced and reduced proteins were determined for the seed of V. hirsuta.
