| cross-species chromosome painting in bats from madagascar: the contribution of myzopodidae to revealing ancestral syntenies in chiroptera. | the chiropteran fauna of madagascar comprises eight of the 19 recognized families of bats, including the endemic myzopodidae. while recent systematic studies of malagasy bats have contributed to our understanding of the morphological and genetic diversity of the island's fauna, little is known about their cytosystematics. here we investigate karyotypic relationships among four species, representing four families of chiroptera endemic to the malagasy region using cross-species chromosome painting ... | 2010 | 20596765 |
