초록

한국 동해안으로 유입하는 형산강, 영덕 오십천, 송천천, 죽산천에 서식하는 미꾸리과 Cobitidae의 한국 고유종인 동방종개 Iksookimia yongdokensis의 핵형을 조사하였다. 그 결과 염색체 수는 100이었고 44 meta-submetacentric, 56 subtelo-telocentric chromosome으로 FN은 144이었다. 이러한 사실로 보아 I. yondokensis는 cobitid fishes의 tetraploid species라고 생각된다.

Chromosome of cobitid fishes, Iksookimia yongdokensis collected from the 4 streams flowing to the eastsouthern coast of Korea was studied using chromosome of gill and kidney cells prepared by flame drying technique. The results obtained were as follows: the chromosome number was 100 composed of 44 meta-submetacentric and 56 subtelo-telocentric chromosomes, and the fundamental number (FN) was 144. It was remarked that Iksookimia yongdogensis was distinguishable from its congeners in the karyotype. The above evidences may suggest that Iksookimia yongdokensis was one of the tetraploid species of cobitid fishes.
