Abstract
To clarify the cytogenetic features of the chicken grunt, Parapristipoma trilineatum, small yellow croaker, Larimichthys polyactis, and brown croaker, Miichthys miiuy, in Jeju, Korea, karyotype analysis was performed. The karyotype of chicken grunt and brown croaker consists of 24 pairs of telocentrics [2n=48, fundamental number (FN)=48], and small yellow croaker consists of 3 pairs of submetacentrics and 21 pairs of telocentrics (2n=48, FN=54). No evidence of polymorphism, including aneuploidy or sex-related heteromorphic chromosomes, was found in any specimens examined in this study.
