โฆ Synopsis
In situ hybridization of 3H-labelled ribosomal RNA to the chromosomes of rat bone marrow cells revealed that clusters of ribosomal cistrons (rDNA) are located in the secondary constrictions of chromosomes No. 3 and 12 and near the centromere of chromosome No. 11, both associated with the late DNA-replicating regions. They were not found in Nos. 1, 2, 13, 19, 20, and the Y chromosome.

In situ hybridization of I125-1abelled ribosomal RNA to mouse chromosomes was used to determine the location of the rDNA loci. The results demonstrate the presence of rDNA sites on chromosomes 15, 18 and 19.
