The second set of experiments, (A) male- and female-derived gDNAs of Bothrops bilineatus (Bb); Bothrops taeniatus (Bt) Bothrops atrox (Ba); Lachesis muta = (Lm); Crotalus terrificus (Ct); Crotalus ruruima (Cr) and Spilotes pullatus (Sp) were used for hybridization against male and female chromosomal background of Boa constrictor (Bc). In the (B) an example of how the second set of experiments was conducted, where the gDNA of male and female of caenophidians were used together the gDNA of boas male and females and hybridized on the chromosomes of Boa male and female.
