Abstract: | A modified Giemsa staining technique and the in situ hybridisation technique, have been used to investigate the localisation of highly repeated sequences in the karyotype of the locust Schistocerca gregaria. The centromeric regions are stained densely with Giemsa and further Giemsa-stained bands occur at the telomeric region of the short (S) chromosomes. RNA complementary to repetitious DNA hybridised to loci scattered along the whole length of the chromosomes, with concentrations of grains at the centromeric regions of all the chromosomes and also at the telomeric regions of the S chromosomes. |
