*Chromosome segregation errors (either artificial chromosomes or host chromosomes 17 or X) were nondisjunction (NDJ) or anaphase lag (Lag) events. The predominant artificial chromosome segregation error in 17-C20 was due to anaphase lag (66%, n = 91). Data for X-4 and X-5 have been published [14]. Segregation errors that could not be classified (for example, 1:0) were excluded from these analyses.
