FISH molecular cytogenetic analysis with rDNA. FISH on metaphase spreads of cultivated cardoon (A) and globe artichoke (B) using the rDNA probe pTa71-Cy3 (red fluorescence). In Fig. 3B, arrows point to the hybridization spots localized on the three small acrocentric chromosomes, placed head to head. Scale bar: 5 µm.
