Eatonia

Eatonia was a newsletter established to facilitate communication among scientists working on a group of aquatic insects in the order Ephemeroptera, more commonly known as mayflies. The newsletter is named after Rev. Alfred E. Eaton who studied mayflies in England in the late 1800’s and is considered the “father” of the modern classification of mayflies.

Somatic Pairing In Drosophila Virilis Mitosis, William C. Guest Jan 1975

Somatic Pairing In Drosophila Virilis Mitosis, William C. Guest

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

In neuroblast cells homologous chromosomes tend to pair during prophase of mitosis. Heterochromatic elements of homologous chromosomes are widely separated in very early prophase, at which time the euchromatin is poorly stained. Pairing is intimate for euchromatic portions of chromosomes in early and middle prophase with chiasmata frequently present. Homologous chromosomes most commonly lie side-by-side in late prophase and metaphase. Statistical data are presented to show the frequency of intimate pairing in prophase and side by side pairing in metaphase.
