Abstract

Prominent chromosomal connecting fibers were observed by light microscopy. Preparations were usually made by squashing colchicine-treated L cells together with Giemsa stain after hypotonic treatment without fixation. The connectives were also observed in preparations from which either the colchicine treatment or the hypotonic treatment, or even both, were omitted. Most of the prominent connecting fibers were interchromosomal, but interchromatid connectives also occurred. No fibrous structures were observed at the kinetochore regions.
