Abstract excerpt
Less than half of human zygotes survive to birth, primarily due to aneuploidies of meiotic or mitotic origin. Mitotic errors generate chromosomal mosaicism, defined by multiple cell lineages with distinct chromosome complements. The incidence and impacts of mosaicism in human embryos remain controversial, with most previous studies based on bulk DNA assays or comparisons of multiple biopsies of few embryonic...
