Abstract Double fluorochrome staining with chromomycin A3 (CMA) and 4′-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) was used to characterize and compare the distribution of constitutive heterochromatin along chromosomes of Citrus, Poncirus and Fortunella species. Only CMA-positive bands were distinguishable in metaphase chromosomes. Preferential distribution of heterochromatin in terminal regions, mainly of the long arm, and centromeric regions of a few long chromosomes was a common feature of these genera. Heteromorphism between possible homologous chromosomes was present in the majority of species. Citrus and Poncirus revealed some remarkably uniform chromosomes without any intensively fluorescing region, whereas Fortunella cultivars were differentiated by the presence of CMA bands in all chromosomes. Through measurements assisted by a computer, amounts of CMA-positive regions were shown to be highest in Fortunella. Similarities between Citrus and Poncirus suggest little heterochromatin diversification among karyotypes of these genera, whereas Fortunella, with higher amounts and more homogenous distribution of heterochromatin, is more divergent.
