Abstract
The DNA content of 10 species of bivalve molluscs from British Columbia coast was determined by image analysis, and the karyotypes of the horse clam Tressus capax, the bent-nose macoma Macoma nasuta, and the nuttall's mahogany clam Nuttallia nuttallii are described here for the first time. We also have analyzed the location of rDNA loci using a 28S-5.8S-18S probe in four of these species: Mytilus californianus, M. trossulus, Macoma nasuta and N. nuttallii. Results obtained report new data about cytogenetic characteristics of bivalve molluscs.
