Unusual occurrence of a ZZ/ZW sex-chromosome system and supernumerary chromosomes in Characidium cf. fasciatum (Pisces, Characiformes, Characidiinae)
(Kluwer Academic Publ, 1998-01-01)
Individuals of two populations of the fish Characidium cf. fasciatum were cytogenetically studied and showed a basic diploid number of 50 chromosomes. Some fishes were found to have 51 to 54 chromosomes due to the presence ...
Investigation of Partamona helleri (Apidae, Meliponini) B chromosome origin. An approach by microdissection and whole chromosome painting
(2013-01-01)
The stingless bee Partamona helleri in southeast Brazil shows the regular chromosome number 2n = 34 and a variable number of up to four minute B1 or B2 chromosomes. Previous cytogenetic analyses have indicated morphological ...
Localization of rDNA sites in holocentric chromosomes of three species of triatomines (Heteroptera, Triatominae).
(2005-12-30)
Chromatin organization in the holocentric chromosomes of three triatomines species was cytologically studied by fluorescent in situ hybridization with a 45S rDNA probe of Drosophila melanogaster to localize ribosomal genes. ...

Chromatin organization in the holocentric chromosomes of three triatomines species was cytologically studied by fluorescent in situ hybridization with a 45S rDNA probe of Drosophila melanogaster to localize ribosomal genes. ...
Identifying Mazama gouazoubira (Artiodactyla; Cervidae) chromosomes involved in rearrangements induced by doxorubicin
(2017-01-01)
The process of karyotype evolution in Cervidae from a common ancestor (2n = 70, FN = 70) has been marked by complex chromosomal rearrangements. This ancestral karyotype has been retained by the current species Mazama ...
Cytogenetic analysis of A-, B-chromosomes and ZZ/ZW sex chromosomes of Characidium gomesi (Teleostei, Characiformes, Crenuchidae)
(2004-06-01)
Different cytogenetic techniques were used to analyze the chromosomes of Characidium gomesi with the main objective of comparing the base composition of ZZ/ZW sex-chromosomes, B-chromosomes and the heterochromatin of ...
Different responses to doxorubicin-induced chromosome aberrations in Brazilian deer species
(Funpec-editora, 2010-01-01)
The tendency toward chromosome fragility is one of the theories that may explain chromosome variation in brocket deer species (genus Mazama). We tested doxorubicin as an inducer of chromosome aberrations in lymphocytes of ...
B-chromosomes in two Brazilian populations of Dendropsophus nanus (Anura, Hylidae)
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2006-01-01)
We report on the presence of B-chromosomes in two populations of Dendropsophus nanus (= Hyla nana Boulenger, 1889) from São Paulo State, Brazil. Such chromosomes were observed in 4 out of 43 specimens (9.3%) and in 9 out ...
Cytogenetic mapping of the W chromosome in the genus Leporinus (Teleostei, Anostomidae) using a highly repetitive DNA sequence
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-03-01)
The distribution of the Leporinus elongatus LeSpeI repetitive sequence in other Leporinus species was studied in an attempt to elucidate the evolutionary history of sex chromosomes in this genus using chromosome fluorescence ...
