An easy route to the massive karyotyping of complex chromosomal arrangements in Drosophila

Abstract Inversion polymorphism is widespread in the Drosophila genus as well as in other dipteran genera. The presence of polytene chromosomes in some insect organs and, thus, the possibility to observe the different arrangements generated by inversions through a microscope enhanced the cytological...
