The invention discloses a flaking method for chromosomes of diptera insects, and relates to the technical field of
cytogenetics. The preparation method of the fruit fly
chromosome comprises the following steps: by taking a fruit fly
insect as an example, taking a male fruit fly subjected to primary eclosion, anesthetizing, performing
microinjection of
colchicine on the
abdomen, and putting the fruit fly with recovered
vitality into a centrifugal tube; dissecting the fruit flies which are injected with
colchicine for 2-4 hours, taking out testis, putting the testis on a
glass slide, and dripping normal
saline into the testis; a 0.5-1.5 mol / L HCl solution is dropwise added to the testis treated with the normal
saline for dissociation, then a 0.05-0.07 mol / L KCl solution is dropwise added for hypotonic treatment, and then improved
phenol fuchsin dye liquor is dropwise added for
dyeing; and finally, carrying out color separation, tabletting and microscopic examination. According to the method, the testis are selected as observation materials,
colchicine is injected into the
abdomen for 2-4 h, then the testis are taken out for flaking, the problems that chromosomes are not clear, observation and research are not facilitated and the like when
chromosome flaking is conducted on diptera insects with salivary glands as materials are solved, and finally the chromosomes with clear forms are obtained.
