Asynchronies in late replication of the autosomal chromosome pair No. 5, and to some extent of pair No. 4, were found after thymidine pulse labeling cultures of partially synchronized Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts from nine to nine and a half hours and from nine and a half to ten hours after block removal. In contrast to this, no asynchrony could be detected in the replication of homologous autosomes after continuous labeling for the last two hours of the S-phase. - G-banding and C-banding revealed no differences between the homologous autosomes. - These findings indicate that besides the known form of asynchronous replication in mammalian cells during S-phase on the chromosomal level, there also exists an asynchronous replication between homologous autosomes of the same complement.
