The present study constitutes a first attempt to identify the larval salivary gland polytene chromosome arms of Bactrocera papayae Drew & Hancock. This species belongs to the family Tephritidae and is commonly known as the Asian papaya fruit fly. A photographic representation of the polytene chromosomes of this species is provided and the identifying tips as well as most prominent landmarks of ...

Inverse Kinematic (IK) model of Dexter ER2 Robotic Arm and its implementation using wireless embedded system for object sorting application was presented in this work. Dexter ER2 Robotic Arm is a vertical articulated serial robot arm built by using DC servo motors. IK modeling of robot arm was carried out in PC by using geometric method which determines the joint angles of the robot arm for req...

The complete DNA replication sequence of the entire complement of chromosomes in the Chinese hamster may be studied by using the method of continuous H(3)-thymidine labeling and the method of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine block with H(3)-thymidine pulse labeling as relief. Many chromosomes start DNA synthesis simultaneously at multiple sites, but the sex chromosomes (the Y and the long arm of the X) beg...

Partial duplication of the long arm of chromosome 11 and the partial trisomy of 22q are uncommon karyotypic abnormalities. Here, we report the case of a 6-year-old girl who showed partial trisomy of 11q and 22q, as a result of a maternal balanced reciprocal translocation (11;22), and exhibited dysmorphic features, severe intellectual disability, brain malformations, and speech delay related to ...

Alterations of the long arm of chromosome 1 are the most frequent cytogenetic abnormalities found in human breast carcinoma. We examined genetic alterations on chromosome 1q in 124 human breast tumors, using restriction fragment length polymorphism markers mapping to the long arm (13 markers) and short arm (4 markers). Imbalance of heterozygosity at one or more loci on the long arm was observed...
