Mitochondrial DNA variation in North American oedipodinae.
Biochemical genetics - 1 Feb 1995
Martel R K, Chapco W
Abstract excerpt
Restriction fragment analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was used to examine genetic variation and population structure in 13 species of banded-winged grasshoppers (subfamily Oedipodinae). Total DNA of 246 individuals was digested with 11 restriction enzymes and probed with three cloned EcoRI fragments representing the entire mitochondrial genome of Melanoplus sanguinipes. On average, members of this subfamily...
