Abstract

The numeration of the chromosomes, which can be used to describe the karyotypes of various chromosomal forms from different geographical regions, has been proposed for the Maximowicz's vole Microtus maximowiczii. Application of FISH analysis has allowed us to show homology of Robertsonian rearregement (11/20) inkaryotypes of voles from Transbaikalia (2n = 41 and voles from Norsky reservation in Amur Region (2n = 40).
