Abstract

SUMMARYGiemsa C-bands on somatic chromosomes of Trigonella foenum-graecum are present at telomeric end of short arm of chromosomes except chromosome number 2 where the band is centromeric and the nucleolar chromosomes where the bands are present on terminal end of distal arm and in the region of secondary constriction.Arrangement of somatic chromosomes in mitotic cells is non-random and nucleolar chromosomes lie closely associated. At interphase, chromosomes remain polarized and heterochromatic regions form a heterochromatic ring towards one pole. The ring like configuration of heterochromatic regions at anaphase is maintained till next interphase and even early prophase through telophase. The regularity of non random arrangement of chromosomes throughout the division cycle is indicated.
