Molecular cytogenetic analyses on D. gliroides chromosomes. a FISH over a male mitotic plate, using the telomeric probe. Note the absence of interstitial signals in all chromosomes. b Self-GISH on a female mitotic plate. Note the strong fluorescent signals in some telomeric regions and a dot-like fluorescent pattern in all chromosomes, except pair 3. c Immunoassay over male mitotic plates using the anti-centromere of polyclonal human antibody. Colocalization of red fluorescent signals with the primary constriction is observed
