Heterochromatic patterns after C-banding technique in the karyotypes of the studied fungus-farming ants aCyphomyrmextransversus (2n = 18) bMycetomoelleriusrelictus (2n = 20), and cSericomyrmexmaravalhas (2n = 48). Dark blocks indicate heterochromatin in the centromeric/pericentromeric regions and short arms of the chromosomes. Scale bars: 5 µm.
