Using extracts from woody tissue and a protocol to avoid isozyme inactivation by polyphenolics and other materials, 27 of 29 strains exhibited unique isozyme banding patterns for glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, peptidase, and acid phosphatase. Implications for genetic homogeneity screening of nursery stock or identifying unknown samples are discussed.
