The chromosomal spread and karyotype of Anjak (Schizocypris altidorsalis) from Hamoun Lake were determined using tissue squashing techniques with an injection of 1 mL/100 g body weight of 0.01% colchicines solution. Kidney and gill epithelia tissues were removed and used for karyotype analysis. The analysis of 145 chromosome spreads revealed the diploid chromosome number of this fish, 2n=48 and...

background and objective: pregnancy termination and recurrent abortion are one of the common complications during pregnancy and in patients with a bad obstetric history. materials and methods: in this study, a total of 154 individuals including 75 couples four single women from different communities and with various incomes were investigated chromosomal abnormalities using blood culture and chr...

genus onobrychis is an important forage crop consisting of approximately 130 annual and perennial species. the present research focused on the cytological studies of embryogenic (e) and non-embryogenic (ne) callus as well as root meristem cells of in vitro and in vivo grown plants. on the contrary to the previous studies, a diploid viciifolia variety with 2n= 2x= 16 chromosomes was observed for...

the laboratory mouse is recognized as the pre-eminent model for genetic research. awareness of chromosomal patterns of experimental animals increases their value for a variety of different fields of study. we aimed to study mitotic chromosome preparations from nih, c57bl/6 and razi strains of mice, which are outbred, inbred and partially inbred laboratory mice respectively. bone marrow cells we...

In this study three polyploid Arum Linnaeus, 1753 species from Southern Italy were chromosomally investigated. Arum italicum Miller, 1768 was found to have 2n = 84 chromosomes and a karyotype composed of numerous asymmetric chromosomes. Arum maculatum Linnaeus, 1753 and Arum apulum (Carano) P. C. Boyce, 1993 were found to have 2n = 56 chromosomes. In the examined taxa some chromosome pairs were...

The Cancer and Leukemia Group B has performed central review of karyotypes submitted by institutional cytogenetics laboratories from patients with acute myeloid (AML) and acute lymphoblastic (ALL) leukemia since 1986. We assessed the role of central karyotype review in maintaining accurate, high quality cytogenetic data for clinical and translational studies using two criteria: the proportion o...
