Banding studies in Canis familiaris. II. Nucleolar organizer regions and NOR association.
Nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in the female dog karyotype are presented. Eight autosomes Nos. 5, 8, 14, 16, 19, 21, 32, and 37 showed active NORs. We observed a high incidence (50%) of metaphases with NOR association.
