title: Daunomycin-bands are similar to Q-bands on chromosomes of Vicia faba.
abstract: Lin et al.2 discovered fluorescent bands on human chromosomes stained with daunomycin (D-bands). These bands looked like Q-bands. We demonstrate D-bands, which look like respective Q-bands, in Vicia faba and infer that the similarity between D and Q banding is general.
