This chapter reviews the current state and future perspectives of fluorescence in situ
hybridization (FISH) in insect chromosomes. FISH in insect chromosomes is most often used …

Multicolor fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) and subsequent reprobing of
chromosome preparations increase the number of chromosomes and/or anchor loci on the …

The class Insecta comprises a widely distributed and diverse group of organisms. This
diversity also extends to cytogenetic data, such as chromosome number, sex determination …

In situ hybridization to chromosomes and nuclei of Tenebrio molitor shows the massive
presence of a species-specific satellite DNA in all chromosomes and six sites of rDNA in …

The use of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) has allowed the generation of data
concerning the genome structure and chromosomal organization and differentiation of …

The large size and complex polyploid nature of many genomes has often hampered
genomics development, as is the case for several plants of high agronomic value. Isolating …

The ability to obtain large amounts of genomic sequence for organisms and high throughput
technology has led to a change in the thrust of research at the level of chromosomes in …

Modern contributions to evolutionary cytogenetics of insects are aimed at understanding the
evolutionary changes of the chromosome structure and function within different taxa and …

The structural details visible under the light microscope have made polytene chromosomes
from Diptera much used in studies of the taxonomy, evolution and genetics of important …

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a powerful technique to directly localize cloned
DNA probes onto chromosomes. This approach is essential to delimit cytogenetic analysis …
