Karyotype evolution in Aeshna (Aeshnidae, Odonata)

The haploid DNA content of Aeshna confusa (2n = 27, n = 13 + XO, male). A. bonariensis (2n = 26, n = 12 + neo-XY, male) and A. cornigera planaltica (2n = 16, n = 7 + neo-XY, male) has been determined (2.16 ± 0.16 pg, 1.81 ± 0.17 pg, and 2.08 ± 0.08 pg, respectively). Despite the differences in chrom...
