The karyotypes of O. potamophila and the distribution and amount of transcriptionally active nucleolar organizer regions on chromosomes were analyzed by Giemsa staining and Ag-NORs. The results showed that the number of diploid chromosomes of O. potamophila was 44; the genome of O. potamophila was composed of 44 telocentric chromosomes; the karyotype formula was 2 n = 44 t,NF = 44; Ag-NORs were found in the paracentromeric region of chromosome. The results may lay the foundation for revealing the genetic pattern and chromosomal evolution of O. potamophila and contribute to further genetic breeding of O. potamophila.展开更多
