Channid fishes, commonly referred to as "snakeheads", are currently very important in Asian fishery and aquaculture due to the substantial decline in natural populations because of overexploitation. A large degree of chromosomal variation has been found in this family, mainly through the use of conventional cytogenetic investigations. In this study, we analyzed the karyotype structure and the d...
Nearly 260 taxa and chromosomal races of subfamily Chrysomelinae have been chromosomally analyzed showing a wide range of diploid numbers from 2n = 12 to 2n = 50, and four types of male sex-chromosome systems. with the parachute-like ones Xy(p) and XY(p) clearly prevailing (79.0%), but with the XO well represented too (19.75%). The modal haploid number for chrysomelines is n = 12 (34.2%) althou...
Songbird species (order Passeriformes, suborder Oscines) are important models in various experimental fields spanning behavioural genomics to neurobiology. Although the genomes of some songbird species were sequenced recently, the chromosomal organization of these species is mostly unknown. Here we focused on the two most studied songbird species in neuroscience, the zebra finch (Taeniopygia gu...
The stickleback family (Gasterosteidae) of fish is less than 40 million years old, yet stickleback species have diverged in both diploid chromosome number (2n) and morphology. We used comparative fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on 2 stickleback species, Gasterosteus aculeatus (2n = 42) and Apeltes quadracus (2n = 46), to ascertain the types of chromosome rearrangements that differenti...
During male germ cell postmeiotic maturation, dramatic chromatin reorganization occurs, which is driven by completely unknown mechanisms. For the first time, we describe a specific reprogramming of mouse pericentric heterochromatin. Initiated when histones undergo global acetylation in early elongating spermatids, this process leads to the establishment of new DNA packaging structures organizin...
The RNAi pathway is required for heterochromatin assembly at repetitive DNA elements in diverse organisms. In fission yeast, loss of RNAi causes pericentric heterochromatin defects, compromising gene silencing and chromosome segregation. Here we show that deletion of telomere shelterin components restores pericentric heterochromatin and its functions in RNAi mutants. We further isolated a separ...
The cobia, Rachycentron canadum, a species of marine fish, has been increasingly used in aquaculture worldwide. It is the only member of the family Rachycentridae (Perciformes) showing wide geographic distribution and phylogenetic patterns still not fully understood. In this study, the species was cytogenetically analyzed by different methodologies, including Ag-NOR and chromomycin A(3) (CMA(3)...
Mesopolyploid whole-genome duplication (WGD) was revealed in the ancestry of Australian Brassicaceae species with diploid-like chromosome numbers (n = 4 to 6). Multicolor comparative chromosome painting was used to reconstruct complete cytogenetic maps of the cryptic ancient polyploids. Cytogenetic analysis showed that the karyotype of the Australian Camelineae species descended from the eight ...
This paper reports the cytogenetic characterization of the second chromosome heterochromatin of Drosophila melanogaster. High resolution cytological analysis of a sample of translocations, inversions, deficiencies and free duplications involving the pericentric regions of the second chromosome was achieved by applying sequential Hoechst 33258 and N-chromosome banding techniques to larval neurob...
We have used a combined approach of phylogenetics and cytogenetics to describe karyotype evolution in Diprotodontia. Molecular relationships of diprotodontian marsupials have been clarified using a concatenation of 5 nuclear gene sequences from multiple exemplars of all extant genera. Our well-resolved phylogenetic tree has been used as a basis for understanding chromosome evolution both within...
