From: Chromosomal rearrangements played an important role in the speciation of rice rats of genus Cerradomys (Rodentia, Sigmodontinae, Oryzomyini)

Figure 6

Idiograms of the karyotypes of Cerradomys langguthi28, C. scotii, C. subflavus and C. vivoi (present study). The karyotypic content of chromosomes involved in rearrangements of each species is separated into columns; the syntenic blocks involved in the rearrangements are arranged horizontally. The box contains an idiogram of HME karyotype previously elaborated21 and adapted in Oliveira da Silva et al.33. Each HME chromosome is shown with a separate color, except the pairs (9,10), (13,22) and (16,17), which have one color each. (H) indicates large block of constitutive heterochromatin.
