Abstract
ABSTRACTThis study was carried out on twelve silkworm strains maintained by the Sericulture and Agriculture Experiment Station germplasm bank, located in Vratza, Bulgaria. The polymorphism of acid phosphatase from larval haemolymph was investigated by method of electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. Five fundamental types of this enzyme were found in the studied strains of various origins. The acid phosphatase isozymes were considered to be controlled by five codominant alleles. It was found out that the acid phosphatase is very suitable marker for analyzing the inter- and intra-strain diversity and the strain differentiation.
