| Chromosome staining/banding/FISH |
Hybridization with the rDNA probe confirmed the number and location of Ag-NORs as well as NOR heteromorphism; Hybridization signals were scattered throughout the whole short arm of chromosome pair;DAPI staining produced a pale fluorescence on GC-rich NORs, C-banding showed a mostly pericentromeric location of heterochromatin; |
