(2015) A new karyotype and chromosomal banding pattern in Nannospalax ehrenbergi (Nehring, 1898) (Rodentia: Spalacidae) from southeast Anatolia, Turkey, Caryologia, 68(1), 69-72.0008-71142165-5391https://doi.org/10.1080/00087114.2015.1013706https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12587/6212This paper presents new data on chromosomes of the Palestine mole rat, Nannospalax ehrenbergi, from southeast Anatolia, Turkey. A new chromosomal form, 2n = 56, NF = 62 and NFa = 58, is determined from the region. C-banding revealed pericentromeric constitutive heterochromatin in one submetacentric and seven acrocentric autosome pairs. Two acrocentric autosome pairs and an acrocentric chromosome with a secondary constriction showed interstitial C-positive bands on their long arms. A secondary constriction was detected in the Y chromosome. The NORs were observed in one medium-sized metacentric autosome pair, and in four acrocentric pairs of autosomes.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMole ratsC-bandingnucleolus organizer regionskaryosystematicTurkeyArticle681697210.1080/00087114.2015.1013706WOS:000351412600012Q4
