title: Geographical variation of lactate dehydrogenase and phosphoglucomutase in the loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus.
abstract: One of the two loci controlling muscle lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was shown to be polymorphic in the loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus. The result of the survey on four populations suggests that the differences in the LDH gene frequencies are correlated with the geographical distribution of the loach. A fourth phosphoglucomutase allele (PGMD) was found in one of the loach populations examined.
