From: Cytogenetic analysis in the neotropical fish Astyanax goyacensis Eigenmann, 1908 (Characidae, incertae sedis): karyotype description and occurrence of B microchromosomes

Figure 1

Astyanax goyacensis chromosomes showing (a) Giemsa-stained standard karyotype; (b) C-banding karyotype; (c) the mitotic metaphases (DAPI staining) show the B chromosomes (stars); (d) FISH with B chromosome-specific probe (arrowheads for autosomes and stars for the B microchromosome). In detail a haploid idiogram of the acrocentric chromosomes and the types of B microchromosomes. Red markings indicate the location of the B chromosome-specific probe; (e) Ag-NORs bearing chromosomes (arrowheads); (f) FISH with 18S rDNA (green, arrowheads) and 5S rDNA (red, arrow) probes. The scale bars: 10 μm.
