| Abstract: | We have studied the proteins of the pollen and ovules of the cotton plant. No differences were observed in the electrophoregrams of the proteins from Gossypium hirsutum L. and from G. barbadense L. In the spectrum of the pollen proteins, the main components quantitatively were polypeptides with molecular masses of 34, 44, 47, and 52 kDa. The species G. raimondii Ulbr. differed considerably, with the main polypeptides quantitatively having molecular masses of 27, 36, 46, and 58 kDa. In representatives of genomic group C, interspecies differences were observed in the protein spectra of the pollen. No appreciable differences were observed spectrally in the proteins of the cottonplant ovules.Biolog Scientific Production Combine, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Republic of Uzbekistan, Institute of Genetics, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent ul.
