Insertion polymorphisms of SINE200 retrotransposons within speciation islands of Anopheles gambiae molecular forms
25 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: SINEs (Short INterspersed Elements) are homoplasy-free and co-dominant genetic markers which are considered to represent useful tools for population genetic studies, and could help clarifying the speciation processes ongoing within the major malaria vector in Africa, Anopheles gambiae s.s. Here, we report the results of the analysis of the insertion polymorphism of a nearly 200 bp-long SINE (SINE200)...
