A Robust Framework of Chromosome Straightening with ViT-Patch GAN [PDF]
Chromosomes carry the genetic information of humans. They exhibit non-rigid and non-articulated nature with varying degrees of curvature. Chromosome straightening is an important step for subsequent karyotype construction, pathological diagnosis and cytogenetic map development.

Spectral Analysis of Guanine and Cytosine Fluctuations of Mouse Genomic DNA [PDF]
We study global fluctuations of the guanine and cytosine base content (GC%) in mouse genomic DNA using spectral analyses. Power spectra S(f) of GC% fluctuations in all nineteen autosomal and two sex chromosomes are observed to have the universal functional form S(f) \sim 1/f^alpha (alpha \approx 1) over several orders of magnitude in the frequency ...

Detection of chromosome aberrations in metaphase and interphase tumor cells by in situ hybridization using chromosome-specific library probes [PDF]
Chromosome aberrations in two glioma cell lines were analyzed using biotinylated DNA library probes that specifically decorate chromosomes 1, 4, 7, 18 and 22 from pter to qter.

Karyotype characterization and evolution of chromosome number in Cactaceae with special emphasis on subfamily Cactoideae [PDF]
Cactaceae species are karyotypically well-known with x = 11 and chromosome number variation due mainly to polyploidization. However, both assumptions are based on descriptive observations without taking an evolutionary framework of Cactaceae into account.

A Novel Application of Image-to-Image Translation: Chromosome Straightening Framework by Learning from a Single Image [PDF]
In medical imaging, chromosome straightening plays a significant role in the pathological study of chromosomes and in the development of cytogenetic maps. Whereas different approaches exist for the straightening task, typically geometric algorithms are used whose outputs are characterized by jagged edges or fragments with discontinued banding patterns.

Development of a Biological Dosimeter for Translocation Scoring Based on Two-Color Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization of Chromosome Subsets [PDF]
Recently fluorescence in situ hybridization protocols have been developed which allow the paining of individual chromosomes using DNA-libraries from sorted human chromosomes.

A chromosome-banding study in the Finnish and the Japanese raccoon dog.
The nombre fondamental (NF), which is the total number of euchromatic chromosome arms in the female, is the same in the Finnish as in the Japanese raccoon dog, 66.

The significance of cytogenetics for the study of karyotype evolution and taxonomy of water bugs (Heteroptera, Belostomatidae) native to Argentina [PDF]
Male meiosis behaviour and heterochromatin characterization of three big water bug species were studied. Belostoma dentatum (Mayr, 1863), B. elongatum Montandon, 1908 and B. gestroi Montandon, 1903 possess 2n = 26 + X1X2Y (male).

Deep Anomaly Generation: An Image Translation Approach of Synthesizing Abnormal Banded Chromosome Images [PDF]
Advances in deep-learning-based pipelines have led to breakthroughs in a variety of microscopy image diagnostics. However, a sufficiently big training data set is usually difficult to obtain due to high annotation costs. In the case of banded chromosome images, the creation of big enough libraries is difficult for multiple pathologies due to the rarity
