✦ Synopsis
Culex pipiens ct-glycerophosphate-dehydrogenase is coded by an autosomal locus which is shown to have a demonstrable activity in nymphs just prior to imago emergence and in adults of any age and sex. The ct-Gpd locus has two codominant alleles, c~-Gpd Loo and ~-Gpd 1.3o, and heterozygotes present three isozymes. The e-Gpd locus is localized on the same chromosomes as the two linked esterase loci Est-2 and Est-1, at 37.05 and 44.88 cross-over units, respectively, of these loci. Population studies seem to indicate that the e-Gpd locus has a low variability in Culex pipiens as in most other organisms.
