ChromTR, a novel framework for chromosome detection in metaphase cell images, represents a significant advancement in the ...

Cell division, the basic means by which genetic information is passed from generation to generation, involves tightly coordinated movements of a cell's DNA. This page describes the major phases of ...

ChromTR, a cutting-edge framework for chromosome detection in metaphase cell images, represents a significant advancement in ...

After a period of cell growth and multiplication, dividing cells are arrested in metaphase by addition of colchicine, which poisons the mitotic spindle. The cells are next treated with a hypotonic ...

The chromosomes align along the metaphase plate. As in mitosis metaphase, (and unlike meiosis metaphase I), fibers from the centrioles begin to pull on each one of the chromosomes from both ...
