Abstract

The chromosome numbers of two species (Culter brevicauda and Erythroculter erythropterus) of Korean Cultrinae are investigated. In two species, the mitotic chromosomes from 24 groups with two chromosomes each indicated that it is a diploid. Their karyotypes and total length of chromosomes were slightly different from each other. The karyotype of C. brevicauda and E. erthropterus is 2n=48 (7M+10SM+7ST), FN=96 and 2n=48 (6M+10SM+8ST), FN=96. Observed chromosomes of C. brevicauda and E. erythropterus ranged from 5.4 to $2.2{\mu}m$ and 6.1 to $2.3{\mu}m$ in length, respectively.

한국산 강준치아과 (Cultrinae)의 백조어와 강준치 2종의 염색체 수 및 핵형 분석을 실시하였다. 백조어와 강준치의 염색체 수 및 핵형은 2n=48 (7M+10SM+7ST), FN=96 그리고 2n=48 (6M+10SM+8ST), FN=96으로 밝혀졌다. 염색체의 크기는 백조어에서 가장 큰 염색체 쌍과 가장 작은 염색체 쌍은 각각 $5.4{\mu}m$와 $2.2{\mu}m$였으며, 강준치의 경우 $6.1{\mu}m$와 $2.3{\mu}m$를 보였다.
