Abstract
The
embryonic
tissues
of
3
larids
(Larus
argentatus
,
Larus
marinus
,
Rissa
tridactyla)
and
3
species
of
alcids
(Uria
aalge
,
Alca
torda
,
Fraterula
arctica)
were
grown
in
vitro
as
primary
explants
to
develop
a
method
for
harvesting
mitotic
chromosomes.
A
reliable
method
was
developed
, with
chromosomes
that were
harvested
being
stained
with a
fluorescent
dye.
Partial
karyotypes
and
idiograms
of the
largest
13
autosomes
were
made
for
each
species.
Based
on the
p
arm
to
q
arm
ratios
the
centromere
position
for
each
chromosome
was
determined.
Comparisons
were then
made
between
larid
species
and
alcid
species
as
well
as
between
groups
(larid/alcid)
and the
significant
differences
were
noted.
