Barley biotypes from the world collection differ in their storage protein content even till 200 %. This is the first report including results of the research, in which the structure of grains containing different amount of protein was tested to explain this difference. The endosperm was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. The structure of the aleurone layer, storing large quantities of protein, did not differ between the high- and low-protein forms of barley. It has been proven that the large quantities of kernel protein may be stored in some cells of the zone adjacent to the aleurone layer, defined as the subaleurone cells. It has been shown that morphologically uniform kernels of the same plant and even of the same ear can vary greatly with respect to the number of these subaleurone cells. The purpose of the study was an examination of variation in protein structure in single kernels of a fodder, a brewery and in an extra high-protein form of barley as well. Moreover the studies were aimed to detect qualitative differences in the subaleurone protein. Application of mass spectrometry made possible the identification of several kinds of proteins which were present in subaleurne layer of kernels. In the granule-bound protein fraction isolated from the subaleurone type kernels, a much stronger representation of some protein was found, with the mo lecular mass between 29 and 45 kDa, in comparison with the low-protein kernels. It is supposed, that these protein are isoforms of z-type serpin and B3-hordein.
