Abstract excerpt
The following facts are considered in connection with the problem of population polymorphism at heterochromatic regions of maize chromosomes: (a) variation (1-3 microm) of the heterochromatic region of nucleolus organizer (NO knob) in pollen mother cell at the pachytene stage; (b) presumably function-dependent variation of the degree of its compaction (from a compact state in the majority of plants to a puff-like...
