Abstract

Isozyme polymorphism in the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) was investigated using isoelectric focusing. Four of the 18 enzyme systems assayed were polymorphic. Allelic designations could be made for two enzyme systems (PGM and AK), but not for GPI and IDH, and GPI seemed to be sex-linked. Using the two highly polymorphic enzyme systems, GPI and PGM, geographic variation was estimated among several Asian (except Japanese) laboratory populations and several Japanese wild populations. Significant variation was observed among the Asian (except Japanese) populations, but the genetic structures of Japanese populations were very similar to each other. These results are suggestive of substantial differentiation among Asian populations and large panmictic structure of the migrant population.
