Multicolor fluorescence
in situ hybridization analysis of aneuploidy and diploidy frequencies in
225,846 sperm from 10 normal men. The only factor
clearly tied to human aneuploidy is a mother's age. Men with an extra Y chromosome (47,XYY) are not
distinguishable from normal (46,XY) men, although the average
intelligence of men with this aneuploidy is lower than normal. |
