Karyotypic Analysis of Chicken Grunt, , Small Yellow Croaker, , and Brown Croaker, .

To clarify the cytogenetic features of the chicken grunt, , small yellow croaker, , and brown croaker, , in Jeju, Korea, karyotype analysis was performed. The karyotype of chicken grunt and brown croaker consists of 24 pairs of telocentrics [2n=48, fundamental number (FN)=48], and small yellow croaker consists of 3 pairs of submetacentrics and 21 pairs of telocentrics (2n=48, FN=54). No evidence of polymorphism, including aneuploidy or sex-related heteromorphic chromosomes, was found in any specimens examined in this study.
