| dc.description.abstract | Electrophoretically demonstrable variation was analyzed
in ten enzymes encoded by fifteen genetic loci in samples
from nine populations of five Zaprionus species from Kenya •
frequencies were determined from different
collection localities. The pattern of variation was found
to be such that, frequencies between localities are fairly
uniform in amount and kind, but frequencies among different
species are considerably different in different species than
within each of the species. Concerning the pattern of variation
in different genes, we found that there is more variation in some
genes than in others. The average proportion of heterozygous individuals
range from 1.5% a~ the Adhlocus to 48.6% at the Est-7 locus.
Observed and expected genotype proportions were found in good
agreement. | en |
