Figure 1

FISH analysis of male metaphase chromosomes in C. hamatus and P. macropterus. C. hamatus, metaphase plate after FISH with 5S rDNA probe (a) and reversed black and white DAPI staining (b); P. macropterus metaphase plate after FISH with an AFGP gene probe (c) and reversed black and white DAPI staining (d). Arrows indicate the chromosomes involved in the multiple sex chromosome system.
