[The character of chromosome banding in the karyotype of the roebuck].

We examined the karyotype in five individuals of roe-deer (Capreolus capreolus), coming from Southern Moravia. We subjected to examination the cells of bone marrow, lymphocytes of peripheral blood and germ sexual cells of roebuck. In all examined animals and in all examined tissues we found out a diploid number of seventy chromosomes. All autosomes were acrocentric, sex chromosomes had two arms. During the C-banding the centromere regions of all autosomes stained deep--dark; this demonstrated a great amount of constitutive heterochromatin. Chromosome X stained negatively during the C-banding. The pattern of G-banding was used to establish homologous pairs of chromosomes.
