Visualization of nucleolar organizer regions in sloths (Bradypus variegatus and Scaeopus torquatus)

Abstract

The nucleolar organizer regions of sloth chromosomes were studied. In Bradypus variegatus there was an intercalar localization of NORs on pair 25, while in Scaeopus torquatus, they were telomeric, suggesting a fusion mechanism of chromosome evolution.
