“…This observation is in accordance with previous results of Southem-blot analysis showing preferential replication (replicative dominance) of the D. simulans rDNA in the sima polytene nuclei (Mecheva & Semionov, 1990). Similar differences of the nucleolar organization of Drosophila species were observed earlier for the repleta group (Hennig et al, 1982). As might have been expected, in two other hybridsinsertion sequences only within the NOs and the mesi (D. melanogaster X D. simulans) and mema nucleoli (Semionov et al, 1986).…”

“…Because the rDNA units in D. ananassae are on the Y and 4th chromosomes (Roy et al 2005), we suggest that these variants represent sequence differences between the units on these chromosomes. Our data would predict that the rDNA units in D. mojanensis are also likely to be located on nonhomologous chromosomes, a situation proposed for several species of the repleta group (Hennig et al 1982).…”

“…Although it was not shown that the integration site was telomeric, these results suggest some genetic instability of the satellite DNA arrays that may make them targets of transposable element insertions. It is also noteworthy that capture of nonhomologous DNA fragments can occur at the telomeres of the lower dipteran insect Anopheles gambiae, which also contains a complex satellite DNA (Biessmann et al 1996(Biessmann et al , 1998, and at several telomeres of D. neohydei (Hennig et al 1982), whose telomeric DNA sequences have not yet been identified.…”
