Lack of Variation at Phosphoglucose Isomerase (Pgi) in Bumblebees: Implications for Conservation Genetics Studies
Assessing genetic variation underlying ecologically important traits is increasingly of interest and importance in population and conservation genetics. For some groups generally useful markers exist for examining the relative role of selection and drift in shaping genetic diversity e.g. the major histocompatibility complex in vertebrates and self-incompatibility loci in plants. For invertebrat...
متن کاملThe metabolic enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase (Pgi) affects the outcome of intra-specific competition in a polyembryonic wasp
1. Polyembryonic parasitoid wasps in the family Encyrtidae (Hymenoptera) have evolved a caste system consisting of morphologically and functionally distinct larvae called soldiers and reproductives. 2. Two selective pressures are thought to underlie the evolution of the soldier caste: defence against competitors and resolution of the sex ratio conflict. Previous studies also indicate that soldi...
متن کاملDNA polymorphism at the cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase (PgiC) locus of the wild plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
DNA variation in a 4.7-kb region of the cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase (PgiC) locus was investigated for 21 ecotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana. The estimated nucleotide diversity was 0.0038, which was one-third of those in previously investigated loci. Since most of the nucleotide variations (93%) were singleton and doubleton, Tajima's test statistic was significantly negative. About 50% of n...
متن کاملPhosphoglucose Isomerase from Human Erythrocyte
Phosphoglucose isomerase (D-glucose 6-phosphate ketol isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9) of the human erythrocyte was resolved into a major and two minor components. The major enzyme form, isomerase a, was purified to constant specific activity and appeared homogeneous bjl chromatography, electrophoresis, and ultracentrifugation. The minor enzyme forms, isomerases b and c, were also prepared in high purity...
متن کاملCharacterization of duplicated two cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase (PgiC) loci in Arabidopsis halleri ssp. gemmifera.
Arabidopsis halleri ssp. gemmifera has two cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase (PgiC) loci. A 48-bp deletion was observed in the junction of exon 17 and intron 17 for a locus (PgiC2). PCR-RFLP analysis using cDNA template did not detect the PgiC2 locus. Another locus (PgiC1) has common structure with A. thaliana and expressed normally. A phylogenetic tree of PgiC sequences revealed that duplicat...
