  • Title: C-bands on chromosomes of four beetle species (Coleoptera: Carabidae, Silphidae, Elateridae, Scarabaeidae).
    Author: Rozek M, Lachowska D.
    Journal: Folia Biol (Krakow); 2001; 49(3-4):179-82. PubMed ID: 11987454.
    Abstract:
    The C-banding pattern of Bembidion geniculatum, Silpha atrata, Prosternon tesselatum, and Epicometis hirta are presented. All analysed species have pracentromeric C-bands on autosomes and chromosome X but the widest ones are visible in the karyotype of B. geniculatum. In S. atrata, P. tesselatum, and E. hirta sex chromosome y is heterochromatic, only B. geniculatum having the Y chromosome wholly euchromatin. The results indicate that on the chromosomes of the investigated species do not have a terminal and an intercalar segments of heterochromatin.
