Chromosome spreads from the kidney tissue in the new type of tetraploid were also examined. The results from the flow cytometer indicated that the mean DNA content of the diploid sperm produced by the new type of tetraploid was twice that of the haploid sperm generated by the diploid red crucian carp, and the mean DNA content of the blood cells in the tetraploid was twice that in red crucian carp.
