Unusual chromosome polymorphism and heterochromatin variation in the Argentinean population of the necrophagous fly Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae), comparison with other populations and evolutionary aspects

European Journal of Entomology, 2020
Heterochromatin may vary qualitatively, quantitatively, and in its location both in and between species. There were differences recorded in sex chromosomes, satellite sizes and location of C-bands in specimens of Lucilia sericata (Meigen, 1826) from ...
