Abstract excerpt
Eleven Australian natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster were screened by electrophoresis for evidence of null and/or low activity variants at the Gdph locus. Of 5018 alleles investigated, 57 had markedly lower GDPH activity, as judged by their heterozygous phenotypes, than control alleles. GPDH assays of 13 of these variant alleles showed that whilst they were heterogeneous in their properties and...
