Chromosomes of Oedipoda schochi schochi and Acrotylus insbricus (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Oedipodinae). Karyotypes and C- and G- Band Patterns

Oedipodinae alt familyasına ait Türkiye çekirgelerinden iki türün kromozomları, detaylı karyotip bilgileri (sayı, şekil, total uzunluk, relatif uzunluk, kol oranı, sentromerik indeks) ve C- ve G-band örnekleri tanımlanmıştır. Oedipoda schochi schochi sekiz çift metasentrik, iki çift submetasentrik, bir çift akrosentrik, bir çift subakrosentrik ve metasentrik X kromozomu içeren, sentrik fisyon sonucu 2n ð = 23 den oluşan 2n ð = 25 (X0) kromozomlu bir karyotipe sahiptir, buna karşılık Acrotylus insbricus metasentrik otozom ve metasentrik X kromozomu içeren 2n ð = 23 (X0) kromozomlu bir karyotipe sahiptir.

Oedipoda schochi schochi ve acrotylus insbricus' un (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Oedipodinae) kromozomları, Karyotipleri, C- ve G- band örnekleri

Chromosomes, with detalied karyotype information (number, shape, total length, relative length, arm ratio and centromeric index) and C- and G-band patterns of two species of grasshoppers belonging to the subfamily Oedipodinae in Turkey are described. The karyotype of Oedipoda schochi schochi with 2n O = 25 (X0) comprises eight pairs of metacentric, two pairs of submetacentric, one pair of acrocentric and one pair of subacrocentric autosomes, which come from 2n O = 23 through centric fission and the metacentric X chromosome, while Acrotylus insbricus with 2n O = 23 (X0) possesses metacentric autosomes, and the metacentric X chromosome.
