An empty cell indicates that X or Y linkage of the rearrangement could not be determined.

Left column represents sex-linked chromosomal rearrangements in the IIL arm, all of which are indicated on Figs 2, 4; frequencies are based on a maximum of 1.00.

§

IIL-23 was in cis conformation with IIL-22 in Armenia, where we tentatively consider IIL-22 to be Y linked, based on only 3 males available for study. IIL-23 was associated with the X chromosome in Turkey.

Seven extra bands appeared in one homologue at the junction of sections 66/70 created by IIL-41; the same homologue had IIL-52 and IIL hc71, and the opposite homologue had IIL-39,40 (Fig. 4B).
