Table 1. Theoretical haplotype ratio calculations for a normal fetus according to the etiology of the non-disjunction error during meiosis.
Chromosome 21 (fetal) | Type of meiosis | HR = (|p1−p2)|/p3) |
Normal/D21 | --------------------- | 1 |
T21 | Maternal meiosis I | 0 |
T21 | Maternal meiosis II, Paternal meiosis I | 2 |
T21 | Paternal meiosis II | 0.5 |
HR, Haplotype Ratio; D21, Disomy21; T21, Trisomy 21.
