Individual telomere lengths in CML cases. Some CML cases showing individual long telomeres. Black bars represent the p-ends, whereas gray bars represent the q-ends. (A) Representative metaphase of a CML case (02H077) showing very bright fluorescence on chromosome X. (B) Same case (02H077) representing the value of individual telomere in kilobases. The telomeres on Xp measured 24.83 kb, and the average telomere of the case was 6.60 kb. (C) Case 06H069 showing elongation of telomere on 3p (18.66 kb). Its average telomere length was 8.43 kb. (D) Case 06H097 displayed homogenous with long telomere lengths. Its average telomere length was 12.75 kb, and the longest telomere was on 18p (16.27 kb).
