Chromosomes of hedgehogs in various cytogenetic techniques a – DAPI-stained chromosomes of Erinaceus roumanicus; b – DAPI-stained chromosomes of Atelerix albiventris; c – QFQ-stained metaphase plates of Erinaceus roumanicus. Arrows indicate chromosome pair 21; d – QFQ-stained metaphase plates of Atelerix albiventris. Arrows indicate chromosome pair 21; e – C-banding/DAPI-stained metaphase plates, 2n = 48 chromosomes of Erinaceus roumanicus. Arrows indicate chromosomes with segments of A-T–rich heterochromatin; f – C-banding/DAPI-stained metaphase plates, 2n = 48 chromosomes of Atelerix albiventris. Arrows indicate chromosomes with segments of A-T–rich heterochromatin; g – Ag-NOR–stained chromosomes of Erinaceus roumanicus. Arrows indicate chromosomes with NORs; h – Ag-NOR–stained chromosomes of Atelerix albiventris. Arrows indicate chromosomes with NORs; i – metaphase plates stained by FISH with TEL20 probe in E. roumanicus karyotype. Scale bar 10 μm
