Abstract
We have defined 402 bands in the haploid set of chromosomes in the vol e Microtus transcaspicus by applying GTG banding to early metaphase ch romosomes. An idiogram of the hi. transcaspicus chromosomes has been c onstructed on the basis of a derailed study of chromosomes at differen t levels of condensation. Nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) have been localized to M. transcaspicus and M. subarvalis chromosomes by a comb ination of Ag- and GTG-staining. The banded karyotypes of the two spec ies were compared.
