title: Study of human male meiosis. II-Q-banding in pachytene bivalents.
abstract: In continuation of the research on male human meiosis within the study of pachytene bivalents, results from the analysis of 125 cells are presented. The aim of this work is to establish Q-banding patterns and make a detailed study of chromomere counting and distribution. To obtain Q-bands Quinacrine and Pseudoisocyanine staining techniques have been used.
