Conventional staining with Giemsa in meiotic cells of E. k. koebelei harboring B chromosomes. a zygotene b early pachytene c metaphase I d anaphase I e metaphase II. B chromosomes are associated side by side in initial meiosis (a, b) and by centromere in other cells (c–e). These chromosomes are also segregated to the same pole in d and maintained together in metaphase II (e). X and B chromosomes are indicated. Bar: 5 µm.
