Abstract
The present study focused on the repetitive DNA of the chromosome in four minnow fishes from the genera Danio Hamilton, 1822, Devario Heckel, 1843 and Rasbora Bleeker, 1859. Chromosomes were analysed using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with microsatellite probes including (CA)15, (CAC)10, (CGG)10, (GC)15 and (TA)15 staining. All species retained the diploid chromosome number 2n = 50 in male and female. The microsatellite sequences were mapped in the chromosomes of Danio albolineatus (Blyth, 1860), Devario regina (Fowler, 1934), Rasbora aurotaenia Tirant, 1885 and R. paviana Tirant, 1885. In most cases, the microsatellite was dispersed in the chromosome with conspicuous markings in the telomeric region and the whole genome, which suggests that sequences contribute to chromosome structure and may have played a role in the relationship of this fish group. The comparative genome mapping data presented here provide novel information on the structure and organisation of the repetitive DNA region of the minnow’s genome and contribute to a better understanding of the genomes of these minnows.
期刊介绍:
Caryologia is devoted to the publication of original papers, and occasionally of reviews, about plant, animal and human karyological, cytological, cytogenetic, embryological and ultrastructural studies. Articles about the structure, the organization and the biological events relating to DNA and chromatin organization in eukaryotic cells are considered. Caryologia has a strong tradition in plant and animal cytosystematics and in cytotoxicology. Bioinformatics articles may be considered, but only if they have an emphasis on the relationship between the nucleus and cytoplasm and/or the structural organization of the eukaryotic cell.
