The synaptonemal complex (SC), a part of the ultrastructure of the pachytene bivalent of eukaryotic organisms, is intimately connected with the pairing of homologous chromosomes. Its development, structure, and function have been studied extensively with the electron microscope during the past 20 years. A simple method of staining with silver nitrate has made it possible for us to visualize human SCs with the light microscope.
联会复合体（SC）是真核生物粗线期二价体超微结构的一部分，与同源染色体的配对密切相关。在过去20年中，人们利用电子显微镜对其发育、结构和功能进行了广泛研究。一种简单的硝酸银染色方法使我们能够在光学显微镜下观察到人类的联会复合体。
