BrdU incorporation patterns on chicken metaphase chromosomes after labeling with BrdU for 10, 7, 4, and 2 hr prior to mitosis. BrdU incorporation is stained green. Little or no microchromosomal incorporation is detected throughout the last 4 hr of S phase, whereas some regions of MACs are replicated at later and some specifically at earlier time points.
