OBSERVATION :
found that the best stage of karyometric analysis appears to be the pachytene
stage prepared from oogonial cells. The division of which start at third larval
stage and continue upto early adult stages. This division is normal mitotic
chromosomes. The reason behind not selecting other stages of cell division is
basically the karyometric analysis is not possible on other stages because cell
stages were full of errors due to the presence of small and fine chromosome

DISCUSSION
Cytogenetic work with nematodes was initiated in the later part of the
nineteenth century and continued with high intensity upto the second decade
of twentieth century. This early work was motivated by the urge to understand
of Von Beneden (1883) for the first time, demonstrated, the process of

Moreover, it can also tell us that how this group of animals diversified in such
a way to inhabit all sorts of biotopes and occur in large number in a wide
sibling and cryptic species (Patterson and Stome, 1952). Moreover, study of
chromosome can also reveal the secret of nature behind the evolutionary
found to be five pairs only. However, there were variations about the number
because previously no such attempt has been made by the workers, for the
reasons best known to them. But, I am confident that this parameter can
