Abstract excerpt
It is well established that different allozyme proteins vary in heterozygosity in averages made over large numbers of species. For example, the enzyme 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase has a much higher average heterozygosity than glutamate dehydrogenase. Allozyme data alone provide insufficient power to determine the evolutionary cause of such a difference. Many studies have now been carried out on the DNA...
