Microsatellite isolation and linkage group identification in the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti.
Microsatellites have proved to be very useful as genetic markers, as they seem to be ubiquitous and randomly distributed throughout most eukaryote genomes. However, our laboratories and others have determined that this paradigm does not necessarily apply to the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti. We report the isolation and identification of microsatellite sequences from multiple genomic libra...
متن کاملVitelline envelope genes of the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti.
Vitelline envelope genes from the mosquito Aedes aegypti were analyzed with respect to their DNA sequences, genomic representation, temporal and spatial expression profiles and response to 20-hydroxyecdysone. Genomic clones of three vitelline envelope genes, 15a-1, 15a-2 and 15a-3 were isolated. Southern analysis indicates that all three genes are represented by a single copy in the genome. The...
متن کاملAn Integrated Linkage, Chromosome, and Genome Map for the Yellow Fever Mosquito Aedes aegypti
BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito, is an efficient vector of arboviruses and a convenient model system for laboratory research. Extensive linkage mapping of morphological and molecular markers localized a number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) related to the mosquito's ability to transmit various pathogens. However, linking the QTLs to Ae. aegypti chromosomes and genomic seq...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase activities in the yellow-fever mosquito [Aedes aegypti (Louisville)] during growth and aging.
Our previous findings [Hazelton & Lang (1978) Fed. Proc. Fed. Am. Soc. Exp. Biol. 37(6), 2378 (abstr.)] demonstrated aging-specific changes in glutathione concentrations in the yellow-fever mosquito [Aedes aegypti (Louisville)]. A possible mechanism could be increased utilization via glutathione S-transferase. Thus glutathione S-transferase activities were measured in mosquito samples from the ...
