Wide dispersion of B chromosomes in Rhammatocerus brasiliensis (Orthoptera, Acrididae)
Abstract The grasshopper Rhammatocerus brasiliensis shows polymorphism of B chromosomes, but the magnitude of B-chromosome occurrence and the factors that may contribute to their dispersion in the species remain unknown thus far. The present study analyzed the occurrence and dispersion of B chromoso...
