| This work carried out to evaluates the polymorhism in the silkworm of different lineages using the isoenzymes electrophoresis to detect biochemical markers and to investigate the genetics of populations for those lineages. They were used as samples individual extracts of silk glands of second day old larvas of the fifth instar, originating from seven Japanese lineages and eight pure Chinese lineages maintained by the Cocamar-Cooperativa Agroindustrial de Maringá. The isozymes acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) they were submitted to the electrophoresis in starch gels 14%. The esterases (EST) were analyzed in polyacrylamide gels to 10% and stained with α and b-naphtyl acetate. The total of 21 loci was detected,... |
