Abstract: | The mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of two groups of the iguanid lizard Tropidurus torquatus were studied after conventional staining, G- and C-banding and silver staining of nucleolar-organizer regions. Karyotypic variations involving the microchromosomes were observed in both groups and are, probably, related to the mechanisms of sex determination of the X1X2Y/X1X1X2X2 type in the one group, and of the XY/XX type in the other. |
