The detailed description of cattle chromosomes has been achieved by using the RBA technique that has been found to be faster, more reliable, and offers better resolution than either the G- or Q-banding procedures. The use of this technique for routine analysis of cattle chromosomes is, therefore, strongly recommended. The adoption of a common system of nomenclature also is desirable to avoid misclassification of chromosomes involved in structural abnormalities as well as to trace evolutionary relationships among the Bovidae.
