Polymorphic Intron Sequences Detected within and between Populations of the Oriental Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae)
Mei He,David S. Haymer +1 more
TL;DR: This work used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and exon-primed intron-crossing (EPIC) primers to amplify the intron sequences of an actin gene from individuals representing 2 different laboratory and 3 different wild Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel populations to identify 3 alleles that exist in different frequencies in these populations.

Genetic marker analysis of spatial and temporal relationships among existing populations and new infestations of the Mediterranean fruit fly ( Ceratitis capitata )
TL;DR: The relationships among the infestations within California from recent years are quite different compared with similar populations sampled within Guatemala, which indicates that they are more likely to represent multiple, independent infestation events.
The actin gene family in the oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis. Muscles specific actins
Mei He,David S. Haymer +1 more
TL;DR: The patterns indicate that all four genes are most likely to encode muscle specific actins in the oriental fruit fly, which is highly unusual among previously characterized actin genes.

Actin genes in the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata.
David S. Haymer,J. E. Anleitner,Mei He,S. Thanaphum,S. H. Saul,J. Ivy,K. Houtchens,L. Arcangeli +7 more
TL;DR: This work isolated a gene in the medfly using the cloned Drosophila melanogaster 5C actin gene as a probe and identifies five common cross reacting EcoRI fragments in genomic DNA, but only under less than fully stringent hybridization conditions.

Isolation and Characterization of Actin Homologous Sequences from Dacus dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae)
Mei He,David S. Haymer +1 more
TL;DR: Using a cloned actin gene from Drosophila melanogaster to probe Eco RI digests of D. dorsalis genomic DNA, seven distinct homologous fragments are detectable and what appear to be conserved coding regions and nonconserved flanking and untranslated regions in the cloned fragments are identified.
