    AnnotationChromosome races of mole rats of the Nannospalax nehringi superspecies from the Konya province in Turkey were investigated. Conventional chromosome staining, Ag-NOR staining and C-banding analysis was carried out on mole rats from 13 localities. The description of conventional karyotypes revealed the detailed pattern of geographic distribution of individual races of mole rats. The C-positive regions were localized in centromeric areas, and/or in short arms of submetacentric and subtelocentric autosomes. The distribution of nucleolar organizer regions was described in the 2n=40 and 58 races. The NORs were localized in four pairs of biarmed autosomes in all the studied chromosomal races in distal heterochromatic and euchromatic areas of the short arms. The results demonstrate the considerable extent of variation in C-heterochromatin and NORs distribution in karyotypes of mole rats from Anatolia.
