We have studied mitotic and meiotic chromosomes in the males of two species of Blaps: B. gigas and B. gibba. Karyological characteristics such as the occurrence of a multivalent configuration at diakinesis and two types of metaphase-II spreads support the notion that multiple-chromosome sex systems
In three previous papers ('05, '06, '08) the chromosomes of several species of Coleoptera have been described and figured, and the riile of the heterochromosomes in sex determination discussed. The following pages are a further contribution to our knowledge of the character and behavior of the heter
In all living forms, the organization of the genetic material must enable two universally fundamental functions: the elaboration of biological properties and their transmission. In spite of these inexorable commonalties, genomes have a bewildering variety of forms, with differences occurring not onl
