The karyotype of the pig ( Sus scrofa domestica ) is studied and characterized after applying G‐band and C‐band staining procedures. The material examined originates from 5 boars and 5 gilts and consists of cells from fibroblast and lymphoblast cultures. The identity of the X‐chromosome is discussed.
