The various models of chromatin fiber folding that have been proposed over the years are considered and evaluated. It is concluded that the radial loop/scafold model is strongly supported by the available evidence, although the term 'scafold' may be an unfortunate one. The scafold is not a solid rod

A study was carried out on conventionally stained mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of two species of lizards of the Scincidae: Mabuya caissara and M. macrorhyncha. On the basis of morphological, numerical and metric data, the chromosomes were divided into three groups: two groups of macrochromosomes
Two different mitotic spatial models (Lavania & S harma, Biosystems 14:171 178, 1981, Ashley & Pocock, Genetica 55:16 l-! 69, 198 l) for the arrangement of the chromosomes in the nucleus are analysed for the sake of comparison and assessment. In general, the two models propose nearly the same orient
