CYTOGENETIC ABNORMALITY IN MAN—Wider Implications of Theories of Sex Chromatin Origin

Female nuclei may be identified by means of sex chromatin. In general the number of sex chromatin bodies is one less than the number of X chromosomes. An exception to this rule is a case of sex chromatin-positive XO Turner's syndrome. This case suggests the possibility of sex chromatin-positive...
