Abstract excerpt
Based on selective silver nitrate staining of active ribosomal gene (AcRG) clusters in nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) of human metaphase chromosomes, a technique was developed earlier to estimate the AcRG dosage in individual genomes as a sum of arbitrary units (0-3) ascribed to the silver precipitate (AgNOR) on ten NORs. The AcRG dosage was considered to be an additive quantitative trait determined by five...
