Figure 2

Using chicken flow sorted macrochromosomes (GGA1-GGA9) as well as GGAZ and GGAW, the homologous chromosome segments of the scarlet macaw were established via fluorescent in situ hybridization. All flow sorted probes were validated via hybridization to chicken metaphase spreads (see Figure S1).
