FISH localization of 5 S rDNA and 35 S rDNA families on mitotic metaphase chromosomes of five okra accessions. DAPI-stained mitotic chromosomes are shown in blue and grey. The signals of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA are shown in green and red, respectively. The arrowheads point to the regions of relatively weak DAPI staining. (a1-a4) FISH mapping of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA on the chromosomes of FO. (b1-b4) FISH mapping of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA on the chromosomes of T3. (c1-c4) FISH mapping of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA on the chromosomes of ROJ. (d1-d4) FISH mapping of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA on the chromosomes of RO1. (e1-e4) FISH mapping of 35 S rDNA and 5 S rDNA on the chromosomes of QR. In the five okra accessions, we identified numerous chromosomes containing the 35 S rDNA loci, along with an additional pair of chromosomes containing the 5 S rDNA loci. Scale bars: 1 μm
