Chromosomal homologies between humans and Cebus apella (Primates) revealed by ZOO-FISH

The chromosome reorganizations that arose during primate evolution have usually been detected by use of banding patterns. The ZOO-FISH technique allows more precise characterization of the chromosome homologies between humans and other non-human primates. This technique is useful when the phylogenet...

Description
Summary:	The chromosome reorganizations that arose during primate evolution have usually been detected by use of banding patterns. The ZOO-FISH technique allows more precise characterization of the chromosome homologies between humans and other non-human primates. This technique is useful when the phylogenetic distance between the species is large and chromosome homologies are difficult to detect by comparing G bands (Sherlock et al. 1996).
