Chromosome information is an important key for taxonomy, phylogeny and genetic in Trifolium plants. Thus, ten Trifolium species namely T. grandiflorum, T. resupinatum, T. dasyurum, T. campestre, T. tomentosum, T. hirtum, T. scabrum, T. lappaceum, T. stellatum, and T. repens were collected from their habitats in Fars province based on their morphologi...

Family Muridae consists of eight genera and 28 species in Iran. This family shows notable variability of karyological features. In this study, karyological data derived from 11 species of 7 genera of this family of Iran are presented and compared with previously published accounts. The included species were: Mus musculus musculus from Gonbad (2n=40, FN=40) and Birjand (2n=40, FN=38), Rattus nor...

Chromosomal patterns of experimental animals are useful tools for cytogenetics research and animal breeding. Chromosome investigations of the hairless guinea pig are rare, therefore, karyotype of hairless guinea pigs (twelve male and female) was studied using metaphase spreads of bone marrows and G banding techniques. The chromosomes diploid number was 2n= 64 and polymorphism of three type chro...
