Seeds of Cucurbita maxima, C. moschata and their interspecific hybrids were used to evaluate the intrapopulational and interpopulational variation of their protein composition. Three immunoprecipitating systems common to all the studied samples were detected by the Ouchterlony technique. Fourteen protein bands were identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), whereas 23 bands were identified by sodiumdodecylsulfate (SDS)-PAGE. Using Western blotting (WB) also 23 were detected. The Jaccard's index of similarity calculated from SDS-PAGE and WB varied between 91 and 100% for all the compared pairs of samples. These results demonstrate a high uniformity in the protein composition of all the samples and do not allow for their clear characterization.
