Comparison Of The Chromosome Banding Patterns In Dryomys Laniger And D. Nitedula From Turkey, Ati̇lla Arslan, Teoman Kankiliç, Tarkan Yorulmaz, Tolga Kankiliç, Jan Zima
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The karyotypes of Dryomys laniger and D. Nitedula from Turkey were studied using C-banding and AgNOR staining. The standard karyotypes found in both species were fairly similar to previously published data (2n = 46, NF = 92 in D. Laniger; 2n = 48, NF = 96 in D. Nitedula). The C-banding pattern revealed a relatively small amount of heterochromatin in both karyotypes and C-heterochromatin was concentrated at centromeric areas of most autosomes and the X chromosome. Heterochromatin changes have apparently not been responsible for karyotypic divergences between the studied species. The AgNORs were recorded in the pericentromeric region of two …
Karyology Of Mullus Barbatus (Pisces, Perciformes) From The Mediterranean Basin, Denis Prazdnikov
Karyology Of Mullus Barbatus (Pisces, Perciformes) From The Mediterranean Basin, Denis Prazdnikov
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Data on karyotypes of Mullus barbatus from the Black Sea (Taman Peninsula, Russia) are presented. Chromosome preparations were made using cells of the anterior parts of the kidney and thymus. The karyotype of the population under study consisted of 44 diploid chromosomes with fundamental arm number 52. The chromosomal divergences in fishes with similar ecology and geographical distribution to that of M. Barbatus are discussed.
Comparison Of The Chromosome Banding Patterns In Three Species Of Social Voles (Microtus Irani Karamani, M. Schidlovskii, M. Anatolicus) From Turkey, Ati̇lla Arslan, Kubi̇lay Toyran, Serdar Gözütok, Tarkan Yorulmaz, Jan Zima
Comparison Of The Chromosome Banding Patterns In Three Species Of Social Voles (Microtus Irani Karamani, M. Schidlovskii, M. Anatolicus) From Turkey, Ati̇lla Arslan, Kubi̇lay Toyran, Serdar Gözütok, Tarkan Yorulmaz, Jan Zima
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The karyotypes of three species of social voles recently discovered in Turkey (Microtus irani karamani, M. schidlovskii, and M. anatolicus) were investigated. All specimens examined revealed similar karyotypes comprising 60 chromosomes in the diploid complement. All autosomes and the X chromosome were acrocentric. The subtelocentric Y chromosome was recorded in M. anatolicus but it was acrocentric in the other species. Dark C-bands were observed in centromeric/pericentromeric areas of all the acrocentric autosomes. The X chromosome had a centromeric C-positive area and the Y chromosome was completely heterochromatic in all specimens examined. AgNORs were recorded in the pericentromeric region of seven …
