Drimia is a heterogeneous, poorly understood genus that requires major rearrangement. Chromosome behavior of gigantea and viridula; two species in D. altissima complex was studied for karyotypes transmission extra chromosomes pair pollen viability. Meristematic cells at the root tips viridula were by conventional cytogenetic karyotype analysis. numbers 2n = 22 20 viridula, respectively. Extra c...

The cytogenetic hallmark of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is the presence Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome, which results from a reciprocal translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11). In this report, we describe CML patient with no evidence Ph chromosome but trisomy 8 as single abnormality and typical e14a2 (b3a2) BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript. Fluorescence Situ Hybridization (FISH) analysis revealed an uncommon...

Original meiotic or mitotic chromosome counts are presented for 17 species in 12 families of angiosperms from Iran. Chromosome counts for Amberboa nana, n=16 (Asteraceae) and Camelina rumelica subsp. transcapica, n=13 (Brassicaceae) are repoted for the first time. Chromosome numbers for six species including: Rhagadiolus stellatus (n=5), Campanula raponcoloides (n=34), Campanula trachelium (n=1...

We are reporting a case of 47 chromosome complement with an extra rearranged chromosome 22pter→22qll:: llq23 → llqter in a child with multiple malformations whose mother has a balanced reciprocal translocation t(1l,22) with a history of two previous abortions. We emphasize the importance of family study in such cases.

in this syudy a continuous bovine kidney cell line derived from a primary bovine kidney cells was established for the first time in iran. the cells were originating from two-day-old normal male calf of holstein breed. the cell cultures were continuously passaged following complete proliferation of primary cells. the specific properties or characteristics of the cell were defined using cytogene...

abstract to identify the species, understanding the characteristics of the species, explore the possibility of speciation, mutations in the study population, and many other purposes. in this method for studying colchesin bath, karyotype use for immature worms. after reviewing the slide karyotype of polychaeta (nereis sp.) and observation and analysis of  50  plaque metaphase plate chromosome nu...

background: lymphocytes of fanconi anemia (fa) show an increased sensitivity to the alkylating agents such as mitomycin c (mmc), but their responses to gamma-irradiation is controversial. the extent of dna damage in leukocytes of fa patients following irradiation and mmc treatment was studied at cellular and single chromosome level. methods: dna damage induced by gamma-rays and mmc was measured...

the tribe sophoreae sensu polhill [9,10] is a large and diverse assemblage comprising the ancient and primitive ancestral stocks of papilionoideae. the most frequent chromosome basic numbers in this tribe are x = 11 and x = 9 but chromosome numbers range from x = 8-14 are also known. in this study chromosome numbers and karyotype variation of iranian members of tribe sophoreae are reported. ira...

background: while multiple factors can contribute to male infertility, genetic factors, such as chromosomal disorders or y-chromosome microdeletion, are responsible for about 10% of male infertility. considering the role of y-chromosome microdeletions in men with oligozoospermia who volunteer for in vitro fertilization (ivf), the prevalence of such microdeletions in each particular community ne...

 Abstract Background: To produce a reliable probe suitable for aneuploidy detection of chromosome 13 on uncultured lymphocytes and amniocytes by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), we used a contig of three overlapping cosmids mapped to 13q12.3. Methods: The cosmid DNA carrying the expected sequences of human chromosome 13 was isolated from host cells and labelled with biotin-11-dUTP. Th...
