title: A dicentric variant of chromosome 6: characterization by use of in situ hybridisation with the biotinylated probe p308.
abstract: An unusual variant of chromosome 6 was shown to be a dic(6) by use of the chromosome specific alphoid probe, p308. The use of biotinylated repeat probes provides a rapid procedure for the resolution of some cytogenetic abnormalities.
