Giemsa-banding pattern of chromosomes in Phaseolus vulgaris L.

List of Genes - Phaseolus vulgaris L

Studies of l-Cysteine Biosynthetic Enzymes in Phaseolus vulgaris L.

In higher plants the biosynthesis of l-cysteine from l-serine, acetylCoA, and sulfide requires serine transacetylase and O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase. The distribution of these enzymes in kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Red Kidney) seedlings was determined. Between one-third and two-thirds of the serine transacetylase activity was associated with mitochondria, whereas all of the O-acetyl...

Fluorescence and Giemsa Banding Techniques

The C group chromosomes in man cannot be distinguished solely on morphological grounds, thus, the nature of an extra C chromosome remains unknown unless it is an X chromosome, which can be identified by its late DNA-replication pattern. Extra autosomes belonging to the C group have been observed with or without mosaicism in a wide variety of blood disorders (cf, de la Chapelle et al, 1970; Hell...

Identification of Alfalfa Chromosomes Using Giemsa Banding and Image Analysis Techniques

Session 4 Conventional and Novel Methodologies for Plant Improvement ABSTRACT Chromosomes of two diploid (2n=2x=16) subspecies of Medicago sativa, ssp. caerulea and ssp. falcata, their hybrid and tetraploid (2n=4x=32) cultivated alfalfa (M. sativa, ssp. sativa) were studied. Feulgen’s staining, Cand N-banding techniques and an image analysis system were used. The chromosomes of ssp. falcata hav...

Dye-nucleoprotein Interactions in Giemsa Banding

Fixed chromosome preparations subjected to treatments such as pH 9 (I) or trypsin hydrolysis (2) and stained with Giemsa's demonstrate similar banding patterns irrespective of the pretreatments used. It has been shown that this phenomenon is the result of modifications of DNA-protein and protein-protein associations which alter dye interaction (3-5). It appears that only Giemsa's or related sta...
