Chromosomal variation among populations of a fungus-farming ant: implications for karyotype evolution and potential restriction to gene flow
BACKGROUND: Intraspecific variation in chromosome structure may cause genetic incompatibilities and thus provides the first step in the formation of species. In ants, chromosome number varies tremendously from 2n = 2 to 2n = 120, and several studies have revealed considerable variation in karyotype...
