Abstract

Five enzyme systems, NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (Idh), phosphoglucomutase (Pgm), aldehyde oxidase (Aldox), malic enzyme (Men) and aldolase (Ald), were mapped on the 3rd chromosome of D. simulans. Idh and Pgm were mapped at 6.4 and 38.1 map units on the left arm, respectively. Aldox, Men and Ald were localized at 75.4, 87.7 and 124.6 map units on the right arm, respectively. On the basis of these findings, together with new mapping data of Idh and Est-C [esterase-C] in D. melanogaster, the comparative genetics of the 3rd chromosome of 2 spp. were discussed.
