Chromosome numbers, sex determining systems, and patterns of the C-heterochromatin distribution in 13 species of lace bugs (Heteroptera, Tingidae).
TLDR
For the first time constitutive heterochromatin was localized on chromosomes in all the species studied, evidencing that a quite substantial redistribution of chromosome material within chromosomes might occur without fragmentations or fusions.

Bed bug cytogenetics: karyotype, sex chromosome system, FISH mapping of 18S rDNA, and male meiosis in Cimex lectularius Linnaeus, 1758 (Heteroptera: Cimicidae)
TLDR
A cytogenetic study of the common bed bug Cimex lectularius Linnaeus, 1758 is performed using both classical (Schiff-Giemsa and AgNO 3 -staining) and mo- lecular (base-specifi c DAPI/CMA 3 fl uorochromes and FISH with an 18S rDNA probe).

Patterns of chromosome banding in four nabid species (Heteroptera, Cimicomorpha, Nabidae) with high chromosome number karyotypes.
TLDR
New information on the genome organization and new cytological markers useful for a better insight into karyotype evolution of nabid species are provided.

Karyotypes, male meiosis and comparative FISH mapping of 18S ribosomal DNA and telomeric (TTAGG) n repeat in eight species of true bugs (Hemiptera, Heteroptera)
TLDR
The insect consensus telomeric pentanucleotide (TTAGG)n was demonstrated to be absent in all the species studied in this respect, supporting the hypothesis that this motif was lost in early evolution of the Heteroptera and secondarily replaced with another motif (yet unknown) or the alternative telomerase-independent mechanisms of telomere maintenance.

Achiasmatic male meiosis in Myrmedobia coleoptrata(Fn.) (Heteroptera, Microphysidae)
TLDR
Mitosis and male meiosis were studied in Myrmedobia coleoptrata and spermatogonial metaphase revealed 14 chromosomes, with achiasmatic meioses and their distribution within Heteroptera.

Achiasmatic male meiosis in Cimex sp. (Heteroptera, Cimicidae)
TLDR
Chromosomes and their behaviour in spermatogenesis in Cimex species from a bat species Myotis emarginatus were studied by using both a conventional staining method and sequence-specific fluorochromes CMA3 and DAPI, indicating that in heterochromatin GC-rich clusters are dispersed within AT-rich repeats.

The first finding of (TTAGG)n telomeric repeat in chromosomes of true bugs (Heteroptera, Belostomatidae)
TLDR
This work has detected the first evidence of the insect-type TTAGG telomeric repeats in Heteroptera through fluorescence in situ hybridization.

The Origin of the Achiasmatic XY Sex Chromosome System in Cacopsylla peregrina (Frst.) (Psylloidea, Homoptera)
TLDR
It was suggested that the Y chromosome has evolved from a mitotically stable B chromosome that was first integrated into an achiasmatic segregation system with the X chromosome, and has later become fixed in the karyotype as a Y chromosome.
