  • Title: Esterase and malate dehydrogenase isozyme polymorphisms in 15 Artemia populations.
    Author: Bowen ST, Sterling G.
    Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol B; 1978; 61(4):593-5. PubMed ID: 318392.
    Abstract:
    1. Starch gel electrophoresis of adult brine shrimps from 15 populations revealed little intrapopulation polymorphism in NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase (MDH) isozymes or in the two fastest esterases (demonstrated with alpha-naphthyl propionate as substrate). 2. Interpopulation differences could be summarized as three different electrophoresis band patterns for the five- to seven-banded MDH isozymes and another three patterns for the two fastest esterases. 3. These differences in electrophoresis patterns divide the 15 Artemia populations into four categories (each containing one to seven populations) which may be distinguished by isozyme content and which are congruent with categories established by the criterion of reproductive isolation in an earlier study.
