| chromosomal mechanisms underlying the karyotype evolution of the oriental voles (muridae, eothenomys). | we have investigated the karyotype relationships of two oriental voles, i.e. the yulong vole (eothenomys proditor, 2n = 32) and the large oriental vole (eothenomys miletus, 2n = 56) as well as the clarke's vole (microtus clarkei, 2n = 52), by a combined approach of cross-species chromosome painting and high-resolution g-banding comparison. chromosome-specific painting probes were generated from flow-sorted chromosomes of e. proditor and hybridized onto metaphases of e. proditor, e. miletus and m ... | 2006 | 16717450 |
