We know that the Caucasus is a relatively large mountainous region, situated betwixt Black as well as the Caspian seas. In its turn, it is divided into iii subregions: Ciscaucasia, Greater Caucasus as well as Transcaucasia, too known equally South Caucasus.
The chromosomes of Chironomus 'annularius' sensu Strenzke (1959) [Credit: Dr Mukhamed Karmokov] |
Having collected a sufficient sum of musquito larvae, the researcher managed to report the chromosome structure, rearrangements as well as possible peculiarities of the separate Caucasian populations, inwards fellowship to compare them.
Additionally, he analysed their relations to before known populations from Europe, Siberia, Republic of Kazakhstan as well as North America.
Amongst the curious peculiarities Karmokov identified inwards the chromosome construction of the studied larvae were about rearrangements which seem unique to Caucasus. Furthermore, he constitute that despite the closed geographic proximity, the genetic distance betwixt the Caucasian populations is quite significant, fifty-fifty While non plenty to produce upwards one's hear them equally separate species, it could seek out them equally separate subspecies.
In conclusion, the scientist notes that the obtained information confirm that the Caucasian populations of the studied species bring complex genetic construction as well as furnish prove for microevolution processes inwards the region.
