Cytogenetic analysis of a population of Isognomon alatus Gmelin. 1971 (Pterioida-Isognomidae), from La Mancha Lagoon, Veracruz, Mexico revealed that the diploid number (2n) is 28. The chromosomes are classified as metacentric (pairs 1, 3, 4, 6), submetacentric (pairs 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 12, and 13), subtelocentric (pair 10), and acrocentric (pairs 11 and 14). No sexual chromosomes were identified.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
