Abstract excerpt

Cytogenetic analysis of more than 1500 randomly recovered lethal X chromosomes derived from 2000 and 3000 r X-ray exposures of post-meiotic male germ cells has made possible a plot of the distribution in different regions of the X chromosome of: (1) gene mutations associated with cytologically no...
