Linkage relationships of eleven enzyme loci in the Aedes scutellaris group.
Linkage relationships of 11 enzyme loci were determined in backcrosses between Aedes polynesiensis and Aedes kesseli. Three linkage groups established were Aat2-Lap2-Me-Sex, Cat-Ao-Pgm-Idh2-Est6, and Gpi-Odh-Pgd. Lap2 and Cat have not been previously mapped in Aedes. Locus order and linkage groups were the same as those observed for seven loci mapped in Aedes aegypti. The significance of the observed similarities in chromosome organization and differences in crossover values among closely related Aedes are discussed.
