Intraspecific hybridization of two karyotypic forms of Anopheles vagus (Diptera: Culicidae) and the related egg surface topography

Hybridization tests of the two karyotypic forms (Form A and B) of laboratory-raised, isolines of Anopheles vagus, were conducted by induced copulation. The results of reciprocal- and back-crosses indicated that they were genetically compatible, providing viable progeny. Comparative egg morphometry a...

Zusammenfassung:Hybridization tests of the two karyotypic forms (Form A and B) of laboratory-raised, isolines of Anopheles vagus, were conducted by induced copulation. The results of reciprocal- and back-crosses indicated that they were genetically compatible, providing viable progeny. Comparative egg morphometry and morphology, aided by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), revealed that the eggs of the two karyotypic forms were morphometrically and morphologically similar.
