Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed on Elaeis guineensis (Tenera) chromosomes using the highly repetitive ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) gene probe, pBG 35, from flax. FISH of pBG 35 on interphase cells showed two hybridization sites, thereby indicating two nucleoli, while FISH on metaphase chromosome spread showed the presence of four nucleolar organizer regions (NORs).
