✦ Synopsis
Two stocks of Chironomus tepperi could be isolated. One stock, N(IV)+, contains nucleolus organizers in chromosome I and IV, whereas the other one, N(IV)-, shows only one nucleolus in chromosome I. It is demonstrated by in situ hybridization with radioactive rRNA that the absence of the nucleolus in chromosome IV of stock N(IV)- is not related to an inactivation of the nucleolar DNA, as might have been suggested, but is due to the lack of ribosomal cistrons.

The chromosomal organization of amplified chromosome 12 sequences was studied with fluorescence in situ hybridization in six mesenchymal tumors: two osteosarcomas, one lipoma, two liposarcomas, and one fibrosarcoma. All except the fibrosarcoma contained ring and/or giant marker chromosomes. Amplific
