Figure 7. Types of meiotic multivalent associations in Gint spp. with schemes of hypothesized intra- or interchromosomal rearrangements leading to observed multivalent formation.A,G. dabakalo – a trivalent arising from fission of the chromosome. B, G. dabakalo – a pentavalent originating from three independent fusion events. C, G. gaitako – a quadrivalent resulting from reciprocal translocation. D, G. banfasae – a quadrivalent as a result of reciprocal translocation. E, G. banfasae – a hexavalent arising through two independent events: (1) a fission of chromosome 1 involved in quadrivalent; (2) subsequent fusion of an emerging chromosome fragment with another chromosome. F, G. amoudensis – a quadrivalent arising from the reciprocal translocation. G, G. amoudensis – a hexavalent originated from the reciprocal translocation of the chromosome involved in the quadrivalent and another chromosome.
