Watch for a paper on a new (easy and reproducible) method of polytene chromosome preparation in Nature Methods journal soon this year. We are going to see polytenes at a much higher level of resolution posing interesting questions as well as opening better ways to answer them. I will post more when the paper is out. -Dmitri Novikov, UIUC
