| Chromosome staining/banding/FISH | 18S rDNA clusters were assigned to pairs 2 and 4; small amounts of 18S rDNA clusters were occasionally detected on pair 5. The 5S ribosomal gene clusters, apparently corresponding to a single 5S rDNA
class, were detected on twelve chromosomes (pairs 11, 12, 14, 17, 20
and 21). |
