  • Title: Further resolution of the quail karyotype and characterization of microchromosomes by counterstain-enhanced fluorescence.
    Author: Mayr B, Lambrou M, Schleger W.
    Journal: J Hered; 1989; 80(2):147-50. PubMed ID: 2494254.
    Abstract:
    Sequential staining with a counterstain-contrasted fluorescent R-banding technique (chromomycin A3/distamycin A-DAPI) followed by DAPI-actinomycin D-induced quinacrine-fluorescence-Hoechst 33258 (QFH)-type banding allowed the identification of quail chromosomes up to chromosome 19. The chromomycin A3-positive staining behavior of the W chromosome and of the heterochromatic areas of most microchromosomes indicated their GC-rich nature.
