European Journal of Entomology, 2006 Different cytogenetic techniques including C-banding, base-specific fluorochromes and silver nitrate staining were used to compare the karyotypes of three species of bugs, representatives of the Neotropical genus Antiteuchus, namely A.

Comparative FISH mapping of ribosomal DNA clusters and TTAGG telomeric sequences to holokinetic chromosomes of eight species of the insect order Psocoptera [PDF]
Comparative Cytogenetics, 2019 Repetitive DNAs are the main components of eukaryotic genome. We mapped the 18S rDNA and TTAGG telomeric probe sequences by FISH to meiotic chromosomes of eight species of the order Psocoptera considered a basal taxon of Paraneoptera: Valenzuela ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Heteropteran insects exhibit a remarkable diversity of meiotic processes, including coexistence of different chromosomes types with different behavior during the first meiotic division, non-chiasmatic segregation, and inverted meiosis.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 21, Page 5785-5797, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Using recently published chromosome‐length genome assemblies of two damselfly species, Ischnura elegans and Platycnemis pennipes, and two dragonfly species, Pantala flavescens and Tanypteryx hageni, we demonstrate that the autosomes of Odonata have undergone few fission, fusion, or inversion events, despite 250 million years of separation.

The Plant Journal, Volume 116, Issue 2, Page 446-466, October 2023., 2023 SUMMARY Although the South African Cape flora is one of the most remarkable biodiversity hotspots, its high diversity has not been associated with polyploidy. Here, we report the chromosome‐scale genome assembly of an ephemeral cruciferous species Heliophila variabilis (~334 Mb, n = 11) adapted to South African semiarid biomes. Two pairs of differently

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 188-209, April 2021., 2021 The annotated genome of predatory mirid Nesidiocoris tenuis presented here was generated from a single female insect using a linked‐read sequencing and assembly strategy. Potential contaminants and/or endosymbionts were identified during assembly decontamination along with putative lateral gene transfer candidates.

Sex-Linked Chromosome Heterozygosity in Males of Tityus confluens (Buthidae): A Clue about the Presence of Sex Chromosomes in Scorpions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Scorpions of the genus Tityus show holokinetic chromosomes, achiasmatic male meiosis and an absence of heteromorphic sex chromosomes, like all Buthidae. In this work, we analysed the meiotic behaviour and chromosome rearrangements of a population of the ...

Cytogenetics of the true bug infraorder Cimicomorpha (Hemiptera, Heteroptera): a review
ZooKeys, 2011 The Cimicomorpha is one of the largest and highly diversified infraorders of the Heteroptera. This group is also highly diversified cytogenetically and demonstrates a number of unusual cytogenetic characters such as holokinetic chromosomes; m-chromosomes;
