Repetitive DNAs and Karyotype Evolution in Phyllostomid Bats (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) [PDF]

Biomolecules
Bats are great models for studying repetitive DNAs due to their compact genomes and extensive chromosomal rearrangements. Here, we investigated the repetitive DNA content of two phyllostomid bat species, Artibeus lituratus (2nn = 30♀/31♂) and Carollia ...
