Chromosomal polymorphism of three species--Chironomus plumosus, Ch. balatonicus and Glyptotendipes glaucus collected from the Chernobyl Zone demonstrated following characteristics: lack of standard karyotype, the presence of hetero- and homozygotic inversions (seven para- and one pericentric), increase in centromeric heterochromatin (55% larvae in homo- and heterozygotic state), the presence of B chromosomes (21%)--in Ch. plumosus; only two larvae had a standard karyotype, the rest demonstrating hetero- and homozygotic inversions (eleven paracentrics), reciprocal translocations of the IVF and IA arms, B chromosomes (5.4%), increase in telomeric (43.6%) and centromeric (1.8%) heterochromatin--in Ch. balatonicus; two types of hetero- and homozygotic inversions, replacement of standard sequences in C and D for inversional homozygotic ones--in Gl. glaucus.
从切尔诺贝利地区采集的三种摇蚊——羽摇蚊（Chironomus plumosus）、巴拉顿摇蚊（Ch. balatonicus）和苍白摇蚊（Glyptotendipes glaucus）的染色体多态性表现出以下特征：缺乏标准核型，存在异质和同质倒位（七个臂间倒位和一个着丝粒倒位），着丝粒异染色质增加（处于同质和异质状态的幼虫占55%），存在B染色体（占21%）——在羽摇蚊中；只有两只幼虫具有标准核型，其余的表现出异质和同质倒位（十一个臂内倒位），IVF和IA臂的相互易位，B染色体（占5.4%），端粒异染色质增加（占43.6%）和着丝粒异染色质增加（占1.8%）——在巴拉顿摇蚊中；两种异质和同质倒位类型，C和D中的标准序列被倒位纯合序列取代——在苍白摇蚊中。
