Abstract:Cytological preparations from cell nuclei are required to count the number of chromosomes (including determining ploidy or aneuploidy), to investigate their morphology and organization. The results are valuable for genetic and evolutionary studies, and in breeding programs to understand species relationships, polyploidy, and potential introgression of chromosomes in hybrids between different species. Preparation of good chromosome spreads with well-separated metaphase chromosomes is the foundation of cytogenet… Show more
