EVIDENCE OF TWO CENTRIC FUSIONS IN CHROMOSOME COMPLEMENTS OF NODITERMES LAMANIANUS
Keyword(s):
From a survey of chromosome numbers in Termitidae, it appears that Noditermes laminianus Sjöstedt (Isoptera, Termitidae) and Procubitermes sp. 1 have n = 19 instead of n = 21 as is usually found in the African members of the family. A detailed investigation on N. lamanianus demonstrates that this feature is constant in the area of distribution of this species. This change in the basic chromosome number is explained as the result of two centric fusions.
