Also, in the future, the suggested stick insect-derived microdissection libraries could be sequenced to clarify the genetic content of C-bands, as was previously shown . Later, DNA probes homologous to the identified repeat sequences could help us to understand the distribution of these repeats in C-bands . Yet, only some of the large C-positive regions of stick insects could be shown to contain rDNA and, in some species, to be enriched with telomeric repeats .
