FISH analysis of the C1 and C2 alpha satellite families characterized in the monomer dataset. Probes C1b and C2b are hybridized simultaneously to Cercopithecus solatus chromosomes, which are colored in blue. a Hybridization of probe C1b is shown in red. The arrow points to a single unlabeled chromosome. b Hybridization of probe C2b is shown in green. c Combined signals from (a) and (b). (d) Focus on image (c) showing in details the different types of distribution of the C2b signals relatively to C1b. 1: C2b labels both pericentromeric regions, 2: C2b labels one pericentromeric region toward the long arm, 3: C2b labels one pericentromeric region toward the short arm of an acrocentric chromosome, 4: no C2b signal can be observed on this chromosome.
