Abstract excerpt

The genetic and linkage analyses of an alpha and beta esterase polymorphism in Anopheles culicifacies are presented. A survey of laboratory strains uncovered four electrophoretic variants for the alpha esterase and two for the beta esterase. Genetic analyses indicated that the variants of the alp...
