Abstract
In a brief three years this new technique has already demonstrated its remarkable utility as a tool for unlocking the secrets of heredity. By enabling every one of the 24 human chromosome types to be identified unequivocally, it is clarifying such problems as trisomies and translocations, providing information of immediate applicability to genetic counseling; in research it is assisting in the mapping of human genes.Keywords
