Abstract excerpt
Four enzyme-encoding genes (Idh-1, Idh-2, Ldh-1, and Mdh-1), with alleles diagnostic for the spadefoot toads Scaphiopus multiplicatus and Scaphiopus bombifrons, were investigated in order to characterize their inheritance and linkage relationships. Electrophoretic phenotypes in the offspring of natural crosses exhibit Mendelian segregation, behaving as genotypes produced by alternative alleles at four...
