Lophostoma brasiliense (LBR): (A) Karyotype with G-banding. The horizontal lines to the right of each pair of chromosomes delimit the hybridization with whole chromosome probes from Phyllostomus hastatus and the horizontal lines on the left, the probes from Carollia brevicauda. H identifies the amplified heterochromatic regions. (B) C-banding pattern showing constitutive heterochromatin regions. (C) FISH with telomeric probes. Arrows: interstitial telomeric sequences. (D) FISH with 18S ribosomal DNA probe.
