The cytogenetic analysis that has been accomplished in different groups of Arthropoda has the aim of understanding the mechanisms related to the chromosomal evolution, the events responsible for intraspecific and interspecific variability in diploid number, the origin and differentiation of the sex chromosome systems. The mitotic and meiotic chromosomes have been investigated using classical, molecular and ultrastructural methodologies.
