conclusions this study revealed allele frequency of some strs on chromosome 12 and 16 for the first time in iran, and indicated differences between subjects with metabolic syndrome and subjects in the control group. results there was no significant deviation in allelic frequencies from hardy-weinberg equilibrium for all the studied markers except for d12s1632 and d12s329. the long alleles in d1...

TB-9Sb is a translocation between the B chromosome and chromosome 9 in maize. Certain deletions of B chromatin from the translocation cause a sharp decrease in B-9 transmission compared to the rate for standard TB-9Sb. The deletions remove components of a B chromosome genetic system that serves to suppress meiotic loss in the female. At least two distinct B-chromosome regions suppress meiotic l...

To investigate the potential loss of tumor suppressor gene loci on chromosome 9 in human renal cell tumorigenesis we analyzed 42 paired normal and tumor DNAs with 18 polymorphic microsatellite markers spanning this chromosome. Fourteen of 42 (33%) tumors showed partial or complete deletion of chromosome 9. Deletion mapping provided evidence for the presence of a suppressor locus on both the sho...

objective: the present retrospective study aims at identifying the prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities in a population of couples who are candidates for assisted reproductive techniques. materials and methods: cytogenetic analysis was performed according to the standard methods on cultured cells from the patients’ peripheral blood. the culture, was harvested after 72 hours. at least 20 meta...

The effect of an additional chromosome 6 upon recombination in chromosome 9 was investigated in maize. Trisomic 6 plants and their disomic sibs, heterozygous for three loci of chromosome 9 (yg, sh and wx), were testcrossed, and recombination in the regions yg-sh and sh-wx was analyzed. Single exchanges in the sh-wx region and double exchanges were more frequent in trisomics, particularly in fem...
