Identification and description of distinct B chromosomes in Cyphocharax modestus (Characiformes, Curimatidae)
Cytogenetic analyses were performed in Cyphocharax modestus, collected at Paranapanema River and Tietê River (São Paulo State, Brazil). A karyotype with 2n = 54 chromosomes was observed in the animals from both Brazilian freshwater river systems. One to four B chromosomes were also detected in indiv...
