[Characteristics of quantitative variability of karyotype in cell line of fibroblasts from indian muntjac].
The numerical regularities of karyotypic variability in cell line of the Indian muntjac skin fibroblasts (Muntiacus muntjak) has been studied. It was found that the karyotypic structure of cell population is mainly determined by some number of specific variant deviations from the main structural variant of karyotype (MSVK) to be depended on internal connections between chromosomes. Specific regulations determining the karyotypic structure of cell population are: 1) nonrandom character of cell distribution according to the number of chromosomal deviations from MSVK; 2) specific character of deviations in each chromosome from MSVK; 3) presence of significant connections between individual chromosomes by simultaneous mainly single directed numeral deviations. Results presented in this investigation were thought owner by analysing the number of individual chromosomes. These results extend considerably the known ideas of regulations of karyotypic variability in cell populations in vitro.
