Physical mapping of different satDNAs in Acanthocephalus ranae. (a–c) ARc42 on male chromosomes: (a) metaphase I; (b) pachytene nucleus; (c) diplotene nucleus. (d–f) ARc51 on male chromosomes: (d) metaphase I; (e) pachytene nucleus; (f) diplotene nucleus. (g–i) ARc27 on male chromosomes: (g) metaphase I; (h) pachytene nucleus; (i) diplotene nucleus. (j–l) ARc39 on male chromosomes: (j) metaphase I; (k) pachytene nucleus; (l) diplotene nucleus. (m–o) Two-color FISH with ARc49 (red) and ARc58 (green) on female chromosomes: (m) metaphase I; (n) pachytene nucleus; (o) diplotene nucleus. Chromosomes were counterstained with DAPI. Asterisks indicate X chromosomes. Scale bar = 5 µm.
