  • The FISH probes are reported according to their order along human chromosome 9. The order has been confirmed by data derived from STSs lying inside each YAC (MIT database) and reported in Genetic data and in Radiation hybrids data. An uppercase letter identifies each probe (column 1), and was arranged so that the ascending sequence from A to N corresponds to the hypothesized physical order in the ancestral chromosome IX (Fig. 2). The YACs 763A12 and 748D2 have been chosen because they are very close to the centromere on p and q side, respectively (see MIT database).
