Genetic architecture in codling moth populations: comparison between microsatellite and insecticide resistance markers.

abstract：:Greater prairie-chickens (Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus) were once found throughout the tallgrass prairie of midwestern North America but over the last century these prairies have been lost or fragmented by human land use. As a consequence, many current populations of prairie-chickens have become isolated and small. Thi...
