Figure 1

Examples of FISH mapping of three different DNA sequences to the mitotic heterochromatin of chromosome 2. Prometaphase chromosomes of larval brain cells from the y; cn bw sp strain were stained with DAPI and pseudo-coloured in blue; the different FISH signals are shown in red, yellow and pink. (a) The CG17691 complementary DNA signal (red) maps to the proximal edge of region h44 of 2Rh. (b) The 19.74.3 P-element insert maps to h40–h41 of 2Rh. (c) The hybridization signal of BACR04P15 is located in h44.
