Genetic variation at structural loci in the Glossina morsitans species group.

Biochemical genetics - 1 Feb 1997

Krafsur E S, Griffiths N

Abstract excerpt

Gene diversity was investigated in four taxa of tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) including Glossina morsitans, G.m. centralis, G. Swynnertoni, and G. pallidipes. Histochemical tests were performed for 35-46 isozymes. Polymorphic loci were 20% in G. morsitans, 32% in G.m. centralis, 17.6% in G....
