dc.description.abstractWe present the karyotype characteristics of five cytotypes of mole rats (Nannospalax) with 56 chromosomes revealed by the Cbanding and AgNOR staining analyses. We attempt to investigate if the specific distinction between the populations fromThrace (N. leucodon) andAnatolia (N. xanthodon) is reflected also in their karyotypic differentiation. The specimens from each of the five populations studied revealed a distinct karyotype which was different from those found in other populations. The fundamental number of autosomal arms varied from68 to 72. The amount of C-heterochromatin was larger in theThrace sample of N. leucodon compared to the Anatolian population of N. xanthodon. The active NOR sites were recorded on five autosomal pairs in N. leucodon, whereas only three or four pairs bearing NOR were observed in N. xanthodon. Differences between the studied populations were quantified in the analysis of the distribution pattern of the C-positive bands and the AgNOR sites in individual chromosomes which indicated a basal position of theThrace sample of N. leucodon and its divergence from other studied populations. The karyotypes of the 56-chromosome populations of N. leucodon and N. xanthodon are thus distinctly different.en_US
