Further studies on gene polymorphism in the mainbody and geographically isolated populations of Drosophila pseudoobscura.
نویسنده
چکیده
We have examined polymorphism at 22 additional loci in the populations from the mainbody of Drosophila pseudoobscura and an isolated population from Bogotá, Columbia, which also shows partial reproductive isolation from mainbody populations. These studies extend our previous observations of reduced gene polymorphism and apparent lack of unique allele in the Bogotá population.

Gene flow and the geographical distribution of a molecular polymorphism in Drosophila pseudoobscura.
This paper discusses the relation between the geographical distribution of an enzyme polymorphism and population structure in Drosophila pseudoobscura. California populations of this species living in very different montane and lowland habitats separated by several kilometers are similar to each other in the frequency of an esterase allele. Previous estimates suggest that gene flow is too limit...
متن کاملStudy of β-tubulin gene polymorphisms in Haemonchus contortus isolated from sheep populations in Khouzestan, southwestern Iran
In this report, β-tubulin gene polymorphism was investigated in Haemonchus contortus populations isolated from sheep flocks in different regions of Khouzestan province, southwestern Iran. The samples were chosen on the basis of regional variation in benzimidazole treatment background of sheep flocks. Our objective was to study the relationship between treatment background andβ -tubulin gene po...
متن کاملSelection in heterogeneous environments maintains the gene arrangement polymorphism of Drosophila pseudoobscura.
Chromosomal rearrangements may play an important role in how populations adapt to a local environment. The gene arrangement polymorphism on the third chromosome of Drosophila pseudoobscura is a model system to help determine the role that inversions play in the evolution of this species. The gene arrangements are the likely target of strong selection because they form classical clines across di...
متن کاملThe Allele and Genotype Frequencies of Bovine Pituitaryspecific Transcription Factor and Leptin Genes in IranianCattle and Buffalo Populations Using PCR-RFLP
The use of polymorphic markers in breeding programmes could make selection more accurate and efficient. A total of 324 individuals from six Iranian cattle populations (Sarabi, Golpayegani, Sistani, Taleshi, Mazandarani, Dashtiyari), F1 Golpayegani × Brown Swiss and Iranian buffalo populations were genotypedfor the Pit-1 HinfI and leptin Sau3AI polymorphisms by the polymerase chain reactio...
متن کاملDetection of stabilizing selection in favor of the Santa Cruz homokaryotype in Drosophila pseudoobscura populations from the high plateau of the Colombian Andes.
Chromosome 3 rearrangements were studied in five Drosophila pseudoobscura populations from the high plateau of the Colombian Andes. As in previous studies, the Santa Cruz and Tree Line rearrangements were predominant in these populations, but for the first time other rearrangements such as the Olympic, Cuernavaca and a rearrangement similar to the endemic Mexican Amecameca rearrangement were al...
