The physical sites of 18S-5.8S-25S and 5S rRNA genes and telomeric sequences in the Musa L. genome were localized by fluorescent in situ hybridization on mitotic chromosomes of selected lines. A ...

(a) Using FISH, fluorescent signals are observed at cytogenetic bands (grey) where fragments of a sequence-tagged bacterial artificial chromosome hybridize (red). (b) A clone selected on the basis of ...

Cytogenetics is the study of chromosomes, a vital tool to understanding how genetics play a role in the development and progression of certain diseases, as well as to predicting how a person will ...

Twin and family studies have made it abundantly clear that powerful genetic risk factors act in concert with environmental factors to give rise to psychiatric illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar ...
