| an estimate of phylogenetic relationships among culicine mosquitoes using a restriction map of the rdna cistron. | restriction maps of the rdna cistron of twelve species of mosquitoes in six genera of the subfamily culicinae were constructed using eight 6 bp recognition restriction enzymes. anopheles albimanus was used as an outgroup. the size of the rdna cistron ranged from 8.5 kb in aedes katherinensis to 12.9 kb in ae. polynesiensis. a total of twenty-six sites were scored; eighteen were polymorphic among ingroup taxa. the proportion of polymorphic nucleotide sites (pnuc) was 0.059 and the heterozygosity ... | 1998 | 9723874 |
