Abstract
Chromosome studies in a child with Down’s syndrome revealed 47 chromosomes and only four small acrocentrics. The odd chromosome was a small almost metacentric chromosome of the same length as those in group F. In addition one of the chromosomes of the B group (presumably number 5) showed a deletion of a portion of the short arm. The findings are interpreted as a translocation involving a G chromosome and a part of the short arm of a chromosome in the B group.Keywords
