ABSTRACT
The family Cyprinidae is the largest freshwater fish group with 377 genera and over 3,000 described species. However, this group of fish has very limited cytogenetics and advanced molecular cytogenetics information. Therefore, in this study the karyotypes and other chromosomal characteristics of 15 species in the tribe Systomini (Cyprininae) were examined using Ag-NOR staining along with fluorescence in situ hybridization (5S and 18S rDNA). All species share a similar karyotype (2n = 50; NF = 88-100) in both sexes and no differentiated sex chromosome was observed. Chromosomes bearing NOR sites ranged from one to four pairs among the species, mostly mapped adjacent to telomeres in the short arms of distinct pairs in all analyzed species. This difference indicates an extensive rearrangement of chromosomes including genomic differences. The use of the 5S and 18S rDNA probe confirmed the Ag-NOR sites interstitially located in the telomeric regions of distinct chromosomes, characterizing an interspecies variation of these sites. In most of its analyzed species, the signals of 18S rDNA probe corresponded to the Ag-NOR regions, except in Barbonymus altus, B. gonionotus, B. schwanenfeldii and Puntius brevis having these signals on the same as Ag-NOR regions and other sites.
