Abstract excerpt
Previous results indicate that glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase variability represents the adaptation of Ixodes ricinus L. (Acari: Ixodidae) to fluctuations of environmental conditions, particularly to temperature. Analysis of crucial polymorphisms in I. ricinus Gpdh gene was done by the restriction method, and three different haplotypes were obtained (GPDH441 1, GPDH441 2, and GPDH441 3), corresponding to GPDH...
