title: Inheritance of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase variants in Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus Say.
abstract: The formal genetics of two variants of a 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase locus of the adult mosquito, Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus, was analyzed by starch gel electrophoresis. These two alleles, PgdF and PgdS are codominant, and autosomally inherited, and appear to be linked to the Pgm locus by 27 crossover units in linkage group III.
