Abstract excerpt
Thrips are small insects (0.5-3.0 mm) with distinct habits and life histories characterized by haplodiploid sex determination. In general, low levels of genetic diversity have been reported in haplodiploid insects, although most reports focus on the order Hymenoptera. Therefore, we used RAPD markers to evaluate the structure and both inter- and intra-population genetic variability of Gynaikothrips uzeli...
