The alcohol dehydrogenase polymorphism in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster: ADH activity variation restriction site polymorphism and the Adh cline.

Heredity - 1 Apr 1992

Jiang J C, Gibson J B

Abstract excerpt

Alcohol dehydrogenase activity has been measured in 186 iso-second chromosome lines--104 from seven Australian populations and 82 from six Chinese populations. Restriction endonuclease variation in the Adh gene region in these lines has previously been described (Jiang & Gibson, 1991). The mean ADH activity of AdhF and AdhS lines was significantly higher in the Chinese samples than in the Australian samples. In...
