Abstract
Mouse chromosomes banded by quinacrine mustard staining, by the ASG technique, or by Giemsa staining following trypsinization or chymotrypsinization are described in detail. Three hundred and twelve regions within the mouse karyotype can be distinguished and a simple system of nomenclature is proposed for naming these regions. This nomenclature is applied to discussion of the locations of the breakpoints of twenty translocations and of many specific gene loci.
