AB  - Chromosome bar codes are multicolor banding patterns produced by fluorescence in 
      situ hybridization (FISH) with differentially labeled and pooled sub-regional DNA 
      probes. These molecular cytogenetic tools facilitate chromosome identification 
      and the delineation of both inter- and intra-chromosomal rearrangements. We 
      present an overview of the various conceptual approaches which can be largely 
      divided into two classes: Simple bar codes designed for chromosome identification 
      and complex bar codes for high resolution aberration screening of entire 
      karyotypes. We address the issue of color redundancy and how to overcome this 
      limitation by complementation of bar codes with whole chromosome painting probes.
