Abstract excerpt

Molecular genetic research on the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata, will provide tools to permit determination of source populations for new pest infestations. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of mitochondrial DNA provides some interpopulation discrimination. A restricti...
