A polytene chromosome analysis of the Anopheles gambiae species complex.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 15 Nov 2002

Coluzzi Mario, Sabatini Adriana, della Torre Alessandra, Di Deco Maria Angela, Petrarca Vincenzo

Abstract excerpt

Field-collected specimens of all known taxa in the Anopheles gambiae complex were analyzed on the basis of chromosome inversions with reference to a standard polytene chromosome map. The phylogenetic relationships among the seven described species in the complex could be inferred from the distribution of fixed inversions. Nonrandom patterns of inversion distribution were observed and, particularly on chromosome...
