We assessed the utility of eight DNA sequence markers (5.8S rDNA, 18S rDNA, 28S rDNA, ITS regions, long-wavelength opsin, elongation factor 1-alpha, cytochrome b, and cytochrome oxidase I) in reconstructing phylogenetic relationships at various levels of divergence in gallwasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipid

The closely related salamander genera Plethodon and Aneides (Plethodontidae) differ in morphology, behavior, and ecology. Although the systematics of these taxa has been the focus of much study, many details remain unresolved. To generate an hypothesis for the relationships among these taxa, I seque
A partition assay is described which allows a rapid determination of juvenile hormone release by insect corpora allata. Newly synthesized and released methyl-labeled C,, juvenile hormone is quantitatively extracted into an isooctane phase, whereas precursor methyl-labeled L-methionine remains in the
