Abstract
The distribution of constitutive heterochromatin in the mouse ascites tumor line MSWBS was studied with different banding techniques. In addition to loss of heterochromatin in some biarmed and T chromosomes, 2 marker chromosomes—1 biarmed with centromeric and terminal heterochromatin, and 1 T chromosome with 4 blocks of heterochromatin—were detected. In situ hybridization studies did not indicate any gross change in the repetitive DNA in thistumor line.Keywords
