Abstract

A survey of phosphoglucomutase (Pgm) among laboratory strains of Anopheles culicifacies has uncovered two electrophoretic variants. Detailed genetic analysis revealed that these variants are inherited as codominant alleles at a single locus. The Pgm focus has been assigned to linkage group III approximately 39 map units from Acph (acidphosphatase) and 8.5 map units from Dl (dieldrin resistance). The data indicate that the probable gene sequence is Acph-DI-Pgm.
