  1. The biologically based nomenclature from Fig. 4 is used in this table. Abbreviations:
  2. - = no difference to ISCN 2005 ideograms
  3. Letters in bold: Normally, the ideograms of ISCN 2005 at a 300 band level were used as starting point for biologically based band-splitting; this was not done when sub-bands are shown in ISCN 2005 as one fused band. Such bands are mentioned and depicted here in bold letters.
  4. Letters in italics: In case new bands not mentioned at the corresponding band level but indeed visible on the chromosomes on more condensed chromosomes these are mentioned and printed here in italics.
