Subject: [Histonet] Genetics anyone?


Good morning - This questions was put to me yesterday and, knowing 
little about genetics, I'm stumped.  Can any of you help me.  This 
researcher is collecting samples which he says are either diploid, 
triploid or tetraploid.  He states that someone told him there is a 
stain techniques that "would distinguish the 'ploidy' by the intensity 
of the stained tissue".  

Have any of you heard of such a thing or know someone I can contact for 
this "unusual" question?  Thank you, in advance.  Cheryl
