TI  - Chromosomal distribution of major rDNA and genome size variation in Belostoma 
      angustum Lauck, B. nessimiani Ribeiro & Alecrim, and B. sanctulum Montandon 
      (Insecta, Heteroptera, Belostomatidae).

AB  - Known as "electric-light bugs", belostomatids potentially act as agents of 
      biological control. The Belostoma genus has holokinetic chromosomes, 
      interspecific variation in diploid number, sex chromosome system and DNA content. 
      Thus, the chromosomal complement, the accumulation of constitutive 
      heterochromatin and the distribution of rDNA clusters by fluorescence in situ 
      hybridization (FISH) in Belostoma angustum (BAN), Belostoma sanctulum (BSA), and 
      Belostoma nessimiani (BNE) were evaluated. In addition, a comparative analysis of 
      the DNA content of these species and B. estevezae (BES) was performed. BES has 
      the highest Belostoma DNA content, while BSA has the lowest. BAN showed 
      2n = 29 + X(1)X(2)Y, while BSA and BNE had 2n = 14 + XY. BSA showed 18S rDNA 
      markings on sex chromosomes, while BNE and BAN did on autosomes. The difference 
      between BSA and BNE occurs because of the possible movement of the rDNA cluster 
      in BNE. We suggest the occurrence of fusion in the autosomes of BSA and BNE, and 
      fragmentation in the sex chromosomes in BAN. Also, the genome size of 1-2 pg 
      represents a haploid DNA content of a common ancestor, from which the genomes of 
      BES and BAN had evolved by gene duplication and heterochromatinization events.
