Molecular cytogenetics of the Androctonus scorpions: an oasis of calm in turbulent karyotype evolution of the diverse family Buthidae
Original language description
Recent cytogenetic and genomic studies suggest that morphological and molecularevolution is decoupled in the basal arachnid order Scorpiones. Extraordinary karyotypevariation has been particularly observed in the family Buthidae unique amongscorpions forits holokinetic chromosomes. We analysedthe karyotypes of four geographically distant species of the genus Androctonus Ehrenberg, 1828 (A. australis, A.bourdoni, A. crassicauda, A. maelfaiti)(Scorpiones: Buthidae) by both classic andmolecular cytogenetic methods. Mitotic complement of all species consisted of2n = 24 elements. Fluorescence in situ hybridizationwith fragment of the 18S ribosomal RNA gene, cytogenetic marker well known forits mobility, identified a single interstitial rDNA locus on the largestchromosome pair in all species examined. Our findings thus support evolutionarystasis of the Androctonus karyotype,which is discussed with current hypotheses on the chromosome evolutionboth within and beyond the family Buthidae. Diff
