Abstract

|
The Karyotypes of Korean Sciurus uulgaris coreae and Tamias sibiricus asiaticus were analyzed by the G-banding method. Chromosomes of two species could be identified by G-banding patterns. The banding patterns of chromosomes 9, 10, 12 and X of S. vulgaris coreae were identical to those of chromosomes 6, 9, 12 and X, respectively of T. sibiricus asiaticus. It was shown that chromosomes 4, 10, 7 and 17 of T. sibiricus asiaticus resulted from pericentric inversion of chromosomes 1, 7, 8 and 16 of S. vulgaris coreae. These results suggested that pericentric inversion was an important factor in the karyological differentiation of two species.
