Chromosomal homology of wood bison and plains bison
Karyotypes of wood bison (Bison bison athabascae) and plains bison (Bison bison bison) were studied. Both subspecies were characterized by the same number of chromosomes (2n = 60), acrocentric autosomes, submetacentric X chromosomes, and an acrocentric Y chromosome. G-banding patterns suggest that w...
