Fast screening of labelling probes was performed by FISHIS on cultivated cardoon (panel A and C) and globe artichoke (panel B and D) nuclei suspensions. The nuclei with the clearest and discrete telomeric (TTTAGGG)5 and SSR (GAA)7 signals are shown. All oligonucleotides were fluorescently labelled by Cy3 (red fluorescence). Nuclear DNA was counterstained with DAPI (blue fluorescence). Scale bar: 5 µm.
