Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To explore spatial genetic structures using molecular markers in a brachypterous grasshopper Podisma sapporensis in which a new sex determination system has been established by the process of translocation between a autosome and X chromosome, we have designed primers that amplify the flanking regions of tandem repeats using the next generation sequencer. We also estimated approximate genome size in this species. Furthermore, we found the infection of endosymbiont in P. sapporensis. Copulatory behavior and copulation duration were also recorded and compared between different chromosomal races.
