Two different Q patterns were found in BUdR and BCdR treated chromosomes of human lymphocyte cultures: X-type pattern, in which Giemsa and quinacrine banding both are reversed; Y-type pattern, in which Q-banding remains conventional in spite of reverse G-banding. Possible mechanisms of these findings are discussed.
