Molecular Cytogenetic Analysis and Isolation of a 5S rRNA-Related Marker in the Scleractinian Coral Platygyra contorta Veron 1990 (Hexacorallia, Anthozoa, Cnidaria)

A molecular cytogenetic analysis was conducted on the scleractinian coral Platygyra contorta, which is commonly found along temperate coasts in Japan. P. contorta was karyotyped (2n=28) by conventional G- and C-bandings, and the karyogram revealed that about 50% of the metaphase spreads had a homoge...
