Balanced translocation (10;13) in a father, ascertained through the study of meiosis in semen, and partial trisomy 10q in his son. Characterization of the region responsible for the partial trisomy 10q syndrome.

We describe a reciprocal translocation (10;13) in a man, ascertained through the study of meiosis in semen, and a partial trisomy 10q in his abnormal son. The phenotypic anomalies of the partial 10q trisomy syndrome are probably due to the presence in triplicate of the region q25 = to qter of chromosome 10.

Chromosomal polymorphism and somatic segregation in Saimiri sciureus.

Quinacrine (Q) and Giemsa (G) banding, and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) studies have been carried out in Saimiri sciureus. In one male and one female studied, the diploid number was 2n = 44 and the karyotype corresponded to that described for the geographical region of Georgetown, Guyana. In the second male three different cell lines were observed, one corresponding to the geographical region of Leticia (Colombia), another to the geographical location of Iquitos (Peru) and a third line with 46 chromosomes. In the three lines, pair A2 was heterozygous, with nucleolar organizers of different size, and pari B6 was also heterozygous, with different amounts of heterochromatin in the short arms. The presence of three different cell lines in this male may be due to a mechanism of somatic segregation. The chromosomal changes involved in the intraspecific polymorphism found in Saimiri have been reinterpreted.
