Abstract
Three types of single-banded electrophoretic pattern of the quail liver catalase were obtained. Bands in these types were designated F, M and S in the order of decreasing mobility towards the anode. It may be probable that the catalase patterns are conrolled by two alleles, CtF and CtS, at an autosomal locus. The M-banded pattern may represent that of heterozygous bird. Out of 231 quails examined 16, 120 and 95 were classified as Ct F, Ct M and Ct S, respectiveely.
