Location of nucleolar organizers in animal and plant chromosomes by means of an improved N-banding technique.

abstract：:When A-banded human chromosomes mounted in water are transferred to an organic mounting medium, the chromosomes show uniform bright quinacrine fluorescence. This change is reversible. It is inferred that quinacrine is bound uniformly along the chromosomes, and that Q-banding is a consequence of a non-uniform distribut...
