  1. 118S rDNA is situated proximal to the 5S rDNA locus (the mutual position of the 5S and 18S rDNA loci on the chromosome in the direction from the centromere to the telomere)
  2. 218S rDNA is situated distal to the 5S rDNA locus
  3. 318S rDNA is situated both distal and proximal to the 5S rDNA locus
  4. A+1aneuploid chromosome set – one extra chromosome
  5. A-1aneuploid chromosome set – one missing chromosome
  6. (+numeral) number of additional loci acquired by a translocated segment from another haplome
  7. (–numeral) number of loci translocated to another haplome
