the chromosome number and type as well as karyotype in vimba vimba persa were studied. a total of 200 larvae and 10 fingerlings of this species with an average weight of 30.2g obtained from shahid ansari fish hatchery. to arrest mitosis in metaphase, larvae under study were placed in a 0.05% solution of colchicine for a period of 6h while the fingerlings were given an intramuscular injection of...

The chromosomal spread and karyotype of Anjak (Schizocypris altidorsalis) from Hamoun Lake were determined using tissue squashing techniques with an injection of 1 mL/100 g body weight of 0.01% colchicines solution. Kidney and gill epithelia tissues were removed and used for karyotype analysis. The analysis of 145 chromosome spreads revealed the diploid chromosome number of this fish, 2n=48 and...

Oculo-auriculovertebral dysplasia (Goldenhar) is a congenital syndrome. Its phenotype differs from craniofacial anomalies to cardiac, vertebral or central nervous system defects. This syndrome is rare and its etiology is not apparent yet. Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 is one of the most common structural balanced chromosomal aberrations with its incidences 15% to 25%. Herein we present ...

the objective of this study was to estimate the effective number of breeders in sarabi cattle population using heterozygote-excess method based on single nucleotide polymorphism markers. data consisted of 20 sarabi cows. snp genotyping was performed using illumina high-density bovine beadchip designed to genotype 777,962 snps. average observed heterozygosity, expected heterozygosity, minor alle...
