Figure 4

Chromosome mapping of nucleolar rDNA in Dendropsophus nanus , Dendropsophus walfordi , Dendropsophus sanborni and Dendropsophus jimi . Metaphases of D. nanus (A), D. walfordi (B), D. sanborni from Botucatu-SP (C, D) and Torres-RS (E), and D. jimi (F) after FISH with rDNA probes. In C-E, note the three different NOR phenotypes found for D. sanborni, which are identified by the presence of the NOR-bearing chromosome pairs 12 (C), 12´ (D) and 12´´ (E) (see text for details). The arrow in D indicates the duplicated NOR in one of the homologs of the NOR-bearing chromosome pair 12´. Bar = 5 μm.
