Polymorphism among different families of Dipteran order: Comparison of RAPD data

Random amplified polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR) data was compared to assess heterozygosity and genetic variability among different members belonging to family Muscidae, Sarcophagidae and Tephritidae. The present review compiles data obtained by ten different RAPD primers. The result shows that M. domestica belonging to the family Muscidae have higher heterozygosity value than members belonging to the family Sarcophagidae and Tephritidae which could be depicted by the fact that Musca flies have more prominent population thickness.
