Akodon mollis (Rodentia, Cricetidae) has a large subterminal Y chromosome measuring 5.24 percent of the haploid set. The long arm of the Y has a pattern of homology with the short arm of the X, as indicated by the similar distribution of G bands and by the formation of a chiasma in diakinesis and metaphase I of teste cells. Conversely, the short arm of the Y and the long arm of the X are nonhomologous and do not pair at meiosis.
软毛稻鼠(啮齿目,仓鼠科)有一条巨大的亚端部Y染色体,占单倍体组的5.24%。Y染色体的长臂与X染色体的短臂具有同源模式,这通过G带的相似分布以及睾丸细胞双线期和减数第一次分裂中期交叉的形成得以表明。相反,Y染色体的短臂和X染色体的长臂是非同源的,在减数分裂时不配对。
