1. The patterns of expression of lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and glucose-phosphate isomerase isozymes were investigated in both embryonic stages and differentiated adult tissues of Diplodus puntazzo. 2. The patterns of this species were compared with those of two distantly related Sparidae species (Sparus aurata, D. sargus). 3. Species-specific patterns were found in all protein systems. 4. Differences in enzyme-locus expression were used to infer the extent of species divergence. 5. Some locus expressions diverged markedly among species, while others were preserved. 6. Comparative analysis of the enzymes examined showed the existence of a taxonomic distance between these three Sparidae species.

Abstract
1. The patterns of expression of lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and glucose-phosphate isomerase isozymes were investigated in both embryonic stages and differentiated adult tissues of Diplodus puntazzo. 2. The patterns of this species were compared with those of two distantly related Sparidae species (Sparus aurata, D. sargus). 3. Species-specific patterns were found in all protein systems. 4. Differences in enzyme-locus expression were used to infer the extent of species divergence. 5. Some locus expressions diverged markedly among species, while others were preserved. 6. Comparative analysis of the enzymes examined showed the existence of a taxonomic distance between these three Sparidae species.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
