STUDIES ON SALIVARY GLAND POLYTENE CHROMOSOME AND ITS INTRASPECIF5C POLYMORPHIC PARACENTRIC INVERSION OF ANOPHELES MESSEAE IN XINJIANG, CHINA / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Salivary gland polyt-ne chromosome was studied in malarial vtctor Anopheles messeae Fall, 1926 of Xinjiang Uygar Zizhiqu.Photograph and diagram of polytene chromosomal karyotype were presented.Four types of intraspecific polymorphic paracentric inversion were found.They were heterozygous inversions in arm 2R and 3R,heterozygous inversion in 3L and its homozygous form.No obvious difference of polytene chromosomal bands was found between Xinjiang An.messeae and Soviet Union An.messeae and they shared the same polymorphic inversion form, but different inversion frequency.
