The map of larval salivary gland chromosomes of the mosquitoCulex pipiens L. is amended as follows: The banding pattern is corrected in arm 1L, and completed in 2L. The amendments were verified on isolated entire chromosomes. Discrepancies between the three maps published previously, are ascribed to differences in method of the respective authors. In map collation, only well-spread chromosomes of a similar degree of polyteny should be used. The spatial arrangement of chromosomes in the nucleus is discussed, and indications are given for distinguishing between chromosome ends and accidental breaks. |
