Cytogenetic studies of two freshwater sciaenids of the genus Plagioscion (Perciformes, Sciaenidae) from the central Amazon
Cytogenetic characterization of two freshwater sciaenid species from the genus Plagioscion (P. squamosissimus and Plagioscion sp.) was obtained for the first time. Giemsa staining, Ag-NOR and C-banding revealed that both species presented 2n = 48 chromosomes (almost all acrocentric). Single NORs and...
