A homogeneous group (same sex, age and environmental conditions) of 35 Italian cattle of the Podolian, Friesian, and Romagna breeds was investigated concerning the spontaneous incidence of sister chromatid exchange (SCE). The mean values of SCEs/cell were 7.9 +/- 3.4, 7.1 +/- 3.3, and 7.3 +/- 3.2 in the Podolian, the Friesian, and the Romagna breeds, respectively, with significant differences between the Podolian and the Friesian breeds. Simultaneous disclosure of SCEs and fluorescent G-bands in the lighter chromatid made possible the identification of chromosome 1, in addition to the biarmed X and Y chromosomes. The inter-chromosomal SCE-distribution revealed a nonrandom pattern due to significantly increased values of SCEs in chromosomes 1 and X, particularly in the Romagna breed.

D002871 Chromosome Banding Staining of bands, or chromosome segments, allowing the precise identification of individual chromosomes or parts of chromosomes. Applications include the determination of chromosome rearrangements in malformation syndromes and cancer, the chemistry of chromosome segments, chromosome changes during evolution, and, in conjunction with cell hybridization studies, chromosome mapping.

D005453 Fluorescence The property of emitting radiation while being irradiated. The radiation emitted is usually of longer wavelength than that incident or absorbed, e.g., a substance can be irradiated with invisible radiation and emit visible light. X-ray fluorescence is used in diagnosis.
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012730 Sex Chromosomes The homologous chromosomes that are dissimilar in the heterogametic sex. There are the X CHROMOSOME, the Y CHROMOSOME, and the W, Z chromosomes (in animals in which the female is the heterogametic sex (the silkworm moth Bombyx mori, for example)). In such cases the W chromosome is the female-determining and the male is ZZ.

D012854 Sister Chromatid Exchange An exchange of segments between the sister chromatids of a chromosome, either between the sister chromatids of a meiotic tetrad or between the sister chromatids of a duplicated somatic chromosome. Its frequency is increased by ultraviolet and ionizing radiation and other mutagenic agents and is particularly high in BLOOM SYNDROME.
