Dear colleagues,

I'm working on DNA endoreduplication in maize nuclei, analyzing the
tissue with a Coulter Epics flow cytometer/MDADSII. I want to calculate
the percent nuclei in each individual C class to see how
endoreduplication progresses as the tissue get older--e.g. how many
nuclei are in the higher C classes over time. Are there any statistical
programs to determine the number of cells/percentage of cells in each
individual C class/peak?

Thanks in advance,
