Mode of inheritance of the polymorphic esterases in Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in Japan.

Abstract excerpt

Crossing experiments were conducted with 43 different parental clones of Myzus persicae (Sulzer) to clarify the genetic bases of esterase variations detected by electrophoresis. A total of 468 F1 clones obtained were analysed for variants at six polymorphic esterase loci, including one associated with resistance to organophosphorus insecticides (RAE). In addition, the effect of six different host plants on the...
