Description

This study reports the results of different staining techniques on the chromosomes of two Poecilia formosa lineages, providing evidence of two additional nucleolus organizer region (NOR) chromosomal clones in this gynogenetic fish. A comparative analysis of chromosomal clones detected in the Amazon molly, along with their frequency and distribution in different collecting sites, is also presented, and clonal heterogeneity resulting from chromosome changes is discussed.
