Genetic polymorphism and evolution in parthenogenetic animals : Part 9: Absence of variation within parthenogenetic aphid clones.

E Suomalainen1, A Saura, J Lokki, T Teeri.   

Abstract

The enzyme gene variability within parthenogenetic clones of Acyrtosiphon pisum has been followed by gel electrophoresis. No variation was observed within any clone. One enzyme locus was found to vary between clones. No evidence was found to support gene recombination due to the alleged endomeiosis. This hypothesis is proven to be also theoretically untenable. The low average heterozygosity in aphids is explained as a result of directional selection operating upon the parthenogenetic aphid clones, as a consequence of which the heterozygosity is lowered.
