Photomicrographs of squash preparations of somatic nuclei of cephalothorax of L. salmonis salmonis and erythrocytes of hen and trout used as standards, stained with Feulgen reaction for DNA. (a) Nuclei of erythrocytes of G. domesticus; (b) nuclei of erythrocytes of O. mykiss; (c) representative nuclei, indicated by arrows, of male L. salmonis salmonis slide 64 whose measurements are given in Table 4; (d) representative nucleus, indicated by arrow, of female L. salmonis salmonis slide 63 whose measurements are given in in Table 4; (e) nuclei of male L. salmonis salmonis slide 64 with high level of DNA compaction; (f) nuclei of male L. salmonis salmonis slide 64 with highly diffuse morphology. Scale bars represent 10 µm.
