Homologous banding patterns in the polytene chromosomes from the larval salivary glands and ovarian nurse cells of Anopheles stephensi Liston (Culicidae)

Abstract

A comparison of the banding patterns of two homologous polytene chromosome arms from the larval salivary gland and ovarian nurse cell complement of Anopheles stephensi is presented. The homologous chromosomes from the somatic larval salivary glands and germ-line derived ovarian nurse cells have essentially the same band-interband organisation. An analysis of the 3H-uridine labelling patterns of a small chromosome segment from the two tissues indicates that germ-line polytene chromosomes are not radically different from somatic polytene chromosomes in their patterns of gene expression.
