Karyotypic kinship between the blue fox ( Alopex lagopus Linn.) and the silver fox ( Vulpes fulva Desm.)
A karyotypic comparison between the blue fox and the silver fox revealed conservation of the chromosome arm as a unit, except for large heterochromatic blocks in 10 pairs of blue fox chromosomes and the complete absence of a common metacentric autosomal pair. This finding seems to indicate that thei...
