Figure 3From: Chromosome painting in three-toed sloths: a cytogenetic signature and ancestral karyotype for XenarthraPartial metaphases of Bradypus torquatus (2n = 50) after FISH with human chromosome-specific paints. The probes used are indicated for each experiment. The green signals were produced by biotin-labeled probes detected with FITC-conjugated avidin and the red signals, by digoxigenin-labeled probes detected with rhodamine-conjugated antidigoxigenin. The chromosomes were counterstained with DAPI.Back to article page
