Reversed image of propidium iodide-stained chromosome 9 from a squash preparation. The positions of the centromere, knob, and heterochromatin/euchromatin boundaries are marked. The average amount of DNA per unit of pachytene chromosome length is ∼1.4 times higher for heterochromatin compared with euchromatin.
