Figure 6From: Genome analysis of a major urban malaria vector mosquito, Anopheles stephensiFISH with Aste72A, rDNA, and DAPI on mitotic chromosomes. The pattern of hybridization for satellite DNA Aste72A on mitotic sex chromosomes of An. stephensi. Aste72A hybridizes to pericentric heterochromatin in both X and Y chromosomes while ribosomal DNA locus maps next to the heterochromatin band in sex chromosomes.Back to article page
