Isolation of DNA from single microsurgically excised bands of polytene chromosomes of Chironomus.

abstract：:We have studied the diameter of chromatin fibres embedded in epoxy resins for three different materials: mouse thymus, chicken erythrocytes and sea cucumber spermatozoa. We confirm that the diameter of chromatin fibres increases with linker length, both values being influenced by the protein composition of chromatin. ...
