[Histonet] Genetics anyone?

)#&$()*&$
What I get emailing without looking at my references. Feulgen's, yes, 
not periodic acid-Schiff's, although Feulgen's does use Schiff's.
A good reference is Berlyn and Miksche "Botanical Microtechnique and 
Cytochemistry", Chap. 11, pp. 246ff
One of the classic methods.
