title: Reciprocal translocation (13;20)(q12;q22) in an Icelandic sheep.
abstract: Cytogenetic examination of G-banded lymphocyte chromosomes of an Icelandic ram from a line with a history of poor fertility revealed a rcp (13;20) (q12;q22) translocation. Meiotic studies showed a quadrivalent configuration at diakinesis and this was confirmed by C-banding.
