Fissions, fusions, and translocations shaped the karyotype and multiple sex chromosome constitution of the northeast-Asian wood white butterfly, Leptidea amurensis
Original language description
We examined the karyotype of an Eastern Palearctic species, Leptidea amurensis, and found a high number of chromosomes (2n = 118–119 in females and 2n = 122 in males) and a curious sex-chromosome multivalent in female meiotic oocytes with 3 W and 6 Z chromosomes. However, in contrast to three Western Palearctic Leptidea species (L. juvernica, L. sinapis, and L. reali), the single chromosomal fusion and static distribution of cytogenetic markers (18S rDNA and H3 histone genes) suggest that the karyotype of L. amurensis is stable. The data obtained for four Leptidea species suggest that the multiple sex chromosome system, although different among species, is a common feature of the genus Leptidea. Furthermore, inter- and intraspecific variations in chromosome numbers and the complex meiotic pairing of these multiple sex chromosomes indicate the role of chromosomal fissions, fusions, and translocations in the karyotype evolution of Leptidea butterflies.
