Closely related muntjac deer show striking karyotype differences. Here we describe
chromosome-scale genome assemblies for Chinese and Indian muntjacs, Muntiacus …

The Neotropical monophyletic catfish genus Harttia represents an excellent model to study
karyotype and sex chromosome evolution in teleosts. Its species split into three phylogenetic …

The XX/XY sex chromosome system is deeply conserved in therian mammals, as is the role
of Sry in testis determination, giving the impression of stasis relative to other taxa. However …

The subgenus Stenocranius contains two cryptic species: Lasiopodomys gregalis
(subdivided into three allopatrically distributed and genetically well‐isolated lineages A, B …

The phenomenon of a remarkable conservation of the X chromosome in eutherian mammals
has been first described by Susumu Ohno in 1964. A notable exception is the cetartiodactyl …

Tandemly arranged and dispersed repetitive DNA sequences are important structural and
functional elements that make up a significant portion of vertebrate genomes. Using high …

X and Y chromosomes in mammals are different in size and gene content due to an
evolutionary process of differentiation and degeneration of the Y chromosome …

The Neotropical monophyletic catfish genus Harttia represents an excellent model to study
karyotype and sex chromosome evolution in teleosts. Its species split into three phylogenetic …

Remarkably stable genomic chromosome elements (evolutionary conserved segments or
syntenies) are the basis of large-scale chromosome architecture in vertebrate species …

The taxonomy of the genus Calomyscus remains controversial. According to the latest
systematics the genus includes eight species with great karyotypic variation. Here, we …
