The period gene is important for the generation and maintenance of biological rhythms. It served as an ideal candidate for the investigation of the mating time isolation between two sibling Queensland fruit fly species, Bactrocera tryoni and Bactrocera neohumeralis. We have isolated the homologues of the period gene in the two species, and show that their putative amino acid sequences are identical. No length polymorphism was detected in the Thr-Gly repeat region. per mRNA expression, assayed in light-dark diurnal conditions, displayed circadian oscillation in both the head and abdomen of B. tryoni and B. neohumeralis, with the same cycling phase. An alternatively spliced intron was identified in the 3' untranslated region. The effect of temperature on the splicing and mRNA expression was examined.
