Abstract
Isozymes extracted from seed of incense-cedar (Caiocedrus decurrens [Torr.] Florin) are described. These Isozymes appear to be encoded by 27 loci; allelic variants are Identified for 25 loci. Three pairs of loci appear to be linked:
estFest, with a recombination frequency (RF) of 0.020.06; Got3: Mdh 1, with an RF of 0.100.19; and Got2:Pg12, with an RF of 0.020.11. The latter linkage has been described for several taxa within the Pinaceae; It may represent an ancient arrangement predating the divergence of Pinaceae and Cupressaceae.
