English: —C-banding revealing the heterochromatin location in Schistocerca species. (a) Ideogram showing heterochromatin distribution (C-positive blocks) in the haploid chromosome complement of Schistocerca species. The black dots are the centromeric heterochromatin, and the black distal block in chromosome 9 of SFLA as well as chromosome 9–11 of SGRE corresponds to the extra C-positive bands. (b) Representative C-banding in Diplotene chromosome spreads from SAME showing the pericentromeric location (most common location) of C-positive block (dark band) in Schistocerca. Bar in (b) corresponds to 5 μm.
