Investigation of marmoset hybrids (Cebuella pygmaea x Callithrix jacchus) and related Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini) by cross-species chromosome painting and comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]
We report on the cytogenetics of twin offspring from an interspecies cross in marmosets (Callitrichinae, Platyrrhini), resulting from a pairing between a female Common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus, 2n = 46) and a male Pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea, 2n

Interactive Karyotyping Training [PDF]
Despite the wide use of newer techniques in genetic diagnostics, there remains a need for technologists to learn human chromosome morphology, identify abnormal metaphases and report clinical abnormalities.

A new species in the major malaria vector complex sheds light on reticulated species evolution [PDF]
Complexes of closely related species provide key insights into the rapid and independent evolution of adaptive traits. Here, we described and studied Anopheles fontenillei sp.n., a new species in the Anopheles gambiae complex that we recently discovered ...

Highly specific PCR-RFLP assays for karyotyping the widespread 2Rb inversion in malaria vectors of the Anopheles gambiae complex [PDF]
Background: Chromosomal inversion polymorphisms play a role in adaptation to heterogeneous environments. Inversion polymorphisms are implicated in the very high ecological flexibility of the three main malaria vector species of the Afrotropical Anopheles

Pathological and Genetic Analysis of Foetuses with Ultrasonogram Detected Congenital Anomalies: A Cross-sectional Study from Southern India [PDF]
Introduction: Prenatal Ultrasonogram (USG) detects the majority of congenital anomalies, but a few cases may be missed due to multiple reasons. Hence, a detailed post-mortem evaluation of foetuses following termination of pregnancy can help to arrive at ...
