I am trying to map an embryonic lethal deficiency by in situ hybridization
to heterozygous politene chromosomes (Df/+) with probes from the region.
It would be extremely helpful to induce asynapsis in order to see if my
probes hybridize only one of the homologous chromosomes or both (the
deficiency is not directly detectable in the chromosomes).
Does anybody know if there is any way to induce asynapsis in the salivary
glands chromosomes?
Thank you very much.
Ruth
