Polymorphism and divergence in the Mst26A male accessory gland gene region in Drosophila.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1992

Aguadé M, Miyashita N, Langley C H

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila males, like males of most other insects, transfer a group of specific proteins to the females during mating. These proteins are produced primarily in the accessory gland and are likely to influence the female's reproduction. The results of studies of DNA sequence polymorphism and divergence in two genes coding for male accessory gland proteins of Drosophila are reported here. The Mst26Aa and Mst26Ab...
