Abstract excerpt
A total of forty-three simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were identified in the Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly) Ceratitis capitata. The most common SSR was the dinucleotide (TG)n/(CA)n occurring in thirty of the forty-three microsatellite loci. Polymorphism at ten dinucleotide markers was investigated in 122 flies from six natural populations sampled in the native and colonized areas. A very high level of allelic...
