The syntenic alpha and beta casein genes were localized in the rabbit by chromosomal in situ hybridization, using a mixture of two radioactive cDNA probes corresponding to these two genes. Highly significant labeling was observed on chromosome 12. A total of 175 silver grains was found on chromosomes in the 193 mitoses studied; 18% of the grains were on chromosome 12, and 42% of the grains on this chromosome were localized to the 12q24 region. Statistical analysis revealed that this labeling was highly significant.
