Sex chromosomes in mitotic and polytene tissues of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, tephritidae) from Argentina: A review

Cytogenetics, which is considered a fundamental tool to understand basic genetic and genomic issues of species, has greatly contributed to the description of polymorphisms both at inter-and intra-specific level. In fact, cytogenetics was one of the first approaches used to propose Anastrepha fraterc...

In fact, cytogenetics was one of the first approaches used to propose Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) as a complex of cryptic species. Different morphological variants of sex chromosomes have been reported among Argentinean populations of A. fraterculus. However, since this high structural variability in sex chromosomes does not pose a reproductive barrier, their role in speciation is yet to be unveiled. This review provides an update on general aspects of cytogenetics in Argentinean A. fraterculus populations, focused on the prevalence of X-Y arrangements. © María Cecilia Giardini et al. 2015 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_13132989_v2015_n540_p83_Giardini http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_13132989_v2015_n540_p83_Giardini
