Chromosome painting of Z and W sex chromosomes in Characidium (Characiformes, Crenuchidae)
(2013-01-24)
Some species of the genus Characidium have heteromorphic ZZ/ZW sex chromosomes with a totally heterochromatic W chromosome. Methods for chromosome microdissection associated with chromosome painting have become important ...
Whole chromosome painting of B chromosomes of the red-eye tetra Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae (Teleostei, Characidae)
(Pensoft Publ, 2015-01-01)
B chromosomes are dispensable genomic elements found in different groups of animals and plants. In the present study, a whole chromosome probe was generated from a specific heterochromatic B chromosome occurring in cells ...

Origin of B chromosomes in the genus Astyanax (Characiformes, Characidae) and the limits of chromosome painting
(Springer, 2016-06-01)
Eukaryote genomes are frequently burdened with the presence of supernumerary (B) chromosomes. Their origin is frequently investigated by chromosome painting, under the hypothesis that sharing the repetitive DNA sequences ...
Common Descent of B Chromosomes in Two Species of the Fish Genus Prochilodus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae)
(Karger, 2013-01-01)
To ascertain the origin of B chromosomes in 2 fish species of the genus Prochilodus, i.e. P. lineatus and P. nigricans, we microdissected them and generated B-specific DNA probes. These probes were used to perform chromosome ...
Possible origin of B chromosome in Dichotomius sericeus (Coleoptera)
(Canadian Science Publishing, Nrc Research Press, 2016-08-01)
B chromosomes have so far been described in about 80 species of Coleoptera, mainly using conventional staining analysis. In this study, 152 individuals of the dung beetle Dichotomius sericeus (Coleoptera), collected from ...
Chromosomal Mapping of Repetitive DNAs in Characidium (Teleostei, Characiformes): Genomic Organization and Diversification of ZW Sex Chromosomes
(Karger, 2015-01-01)
The speciose neotropical genus Characidium has proven to be a good model for cytogenetic exploration. Representatives of this genus often have a conserved diploid chromosome number; some species exhibit a highly differentiated ...
Origin of B chromosomes in Characidium alipioi (Characiformes, Crenuchidae) and its relationship with supernumerary chromosomes in other Characidium species
(Pensoft Publ, 2017-01-01)
B chromosomes are apparently dispensable components found in the genomes of many species that are mainly composed of repetitive DNA sequences. Among the numerous questions concerning B chromosomes, the origin of these ...

Differentiation and Evolution of the W Chromosome in the Fish Species of Megaleporinus (Characiformes, Anostomidae)
(2018-06-08)
The W chromosome of Megaleporinus trifasciatus was isolated in order to analyze its behavior in the karyotype of this and other species of the family, including forms with differentiated and undifferentiated sex chromosomes. ...
