Microsatellite DNA markers for Lysiphlebus testaceipes
نویسنده
چکیده
Microsatellite loci were isolated from the aphid parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). Ten loci were obtained from an enriched partial genomic library. Genetic diversity was analysed at seven of these loci and two natural populations, one on oleander and one on citrus. The observed number of alleles ranged from one to 17, and the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.37 to 0.82. In both populations, no departure from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium was detected except for one locus. The differentiation between the two populations was characterized by an F ST of 0.09.

متن کاملMicrosatellite DNA markers for the aphid parasitoid Lysiphlebus fabarum and their applicability to related species
The aphid parasitoid Lysiphlebus fabarum is suspected to form distinct, host-associated lineages and exhibits poorly understood variation in reproductive mode including thelytokous and arrhenotokous populations. As a tool to study these issues, we developed 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers. The observed number of alleles ranged from two to 35, and the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0....
متن کاملTritrophic interaction of parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Hymenoptera: Aphidiidae), greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Homoptera: Aphididae), and greenbug-resistant sorghum hybrids.
Interactions of the parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Cresson) and the greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), on greenbug-resistant 'Cargill 607E' (antibiosis), 'Cargill 797' (primarily tolerance), and -susceptible 'Golden Harvest 510B' sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, were tested using three levels of biotype I greenbug infestation. The parasitoid infestation rate was 0.5 female and 1...
متن کاملParasitism of Greenbug, Schizaphis graminum, by the parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes at winter temperatures.
Functional responses by Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Cresson), a common parasitoid of small grain aphids, on greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), were measured at seven temperatures (14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, and 2 degrees C) during a 24-h period (12-h light: 12-h dark). Oviposition by L. testaceipes ceased at temperatures <4 degrees C. At all experimental temperatures, a type I, rather than a type ...
