Comparison and morphological classification of macrochromosome pairs of 15 species belonging to five families of Gruiformes.
Based on chromosome morphology, these species can be divided in five different groups, indicated by letters A-E (A = 1,2,4–6 biarmed and remaining acrocentric; B = 1–10 biarmed; C = 1,4,7 biarmed and remaining acrocentric,telocentric; D = 1–6 biarmed and remaining telocentric and E = 1 biarmed and remaining acrocentric). Gropus A-D show a higher number of biarmed macrochromosomes, while group E shows a higher number of acrocentric macrochromosomes.
