P23k is a 23 kDa protein involved in sugar translocation in the scutellum of germinating barley seeds. The present study was carried out to provide the genomic characterization for P23k gene in terms of copy number, chromosome mapping, genetic mapping and expression analysis in germinating sculletum in two major Triticeae crops, barley and wheat, and their relatives. Southern blotting showed that a variable copy number with different restriction fragment sizes was found among 15 Hordeum accessions, while low copy number were found to be conserved in 23 Triticum and 3 Aegilops accessions.
