摘要：
Specific features of the evolution of chromosomes in mammals and other amniotes are reviewed. A comparative analysis of the chromosome architecture revealed the nonrandom distribution of chromosome rearrangement sites in the genome, the probable role of chromosome rearrangement in adaptation, and the evolution-mediated selection of conserved chromosome blocks. Chromosome sites stable during evolution are enriched for genes that contribute to early organism development. Rearrangements within these blocks are incompatible with the survival of the organism. Further analysis of chromosome evolution requires more information about completely sequenced genomes.
