Q- and C-bands in the metaphase chromosomes of Drosophila nasutoides.

abstract：:A simple method has been described for the visualization of chromosomes cores with light microscopy in conventional chromosome preparations. The technique is relatively simple, highly reproducible and can be used effectively on fresh and aged slides. The following observations have been made: (1) a core existed in mit...
