C-BANDING AND FLUORESCENT IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION WITH RDNA SEQUENCES IN CHROMOSOMES OF CYCLONEDA SANGUINEA LINNAEUS (COLEOPTERA, COCCINELLIDAE)

C-banding and fluorescent in situ hybridization with rDNA sequences in chromosomes of Cycloneda sanguinea Linnaeus (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae)

The aim of this study was to describe mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of Cycloneda sanguinea using C-banding, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) rDNA probes, and sequential FISH/Ag-NOR staining.The chromosome number was 2n = 18 + XX for females and 2n = 18 + Xy for males.The X chromosome was metacentric and the Y chromosome was very small.Dur
