Abstract

The application of electrophoretic technique to study allozyme enzymatic variation has been extensively used to explore hidden genetic variability in natural population and laboratory colonies of many calliphorid flies. Genetic variation at three enzyme loci viz., Alkaline phosphatase (APH), Xanthin dehydrogenase(XDH)and Malate dehydrogenase (MDH) in laboratory colonies of Chrysomya megacephalawere investigated by using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). In APH three zones of activity were observed. Which have been designated as APH-1, APH-2, and APH-3 in order of increasing anodal migration. The electrophoretic phenotypes with two codominant alleles were observed at APH-3loci. In MDH and XDH only one zone of activity was observed.
