Abstract The serological relationships of Fraction I proteins from 62 species of the genusNicotiana have been determined by qualitative double diffusion in agar gels, using antisera raised against crystalline Fraction I proteins from four species,N. glauca, N. glutinosa, N. gossei, andN. tabacum. The relationships obtained are, in most cases, similar to the relationships of the species based on morphological and cytogenetic criteria. In general, Fraction I proteins from species within the same section are serologically identical. However, serological examination of Fraction I proteins draws attention to certain species, for example,N. glauca, N. sylvestris, andN. acaulis, whose classification by traditional methods has been difficult.
