title: [Q- and C-band polymorphism of the chromosomes in a group of patients with the Shereshevskiĭ-Turner syndrome].
abstract: Q- and C-band polymorphism of heterochromatic regions of chromosomes were studied in a group of patients with Turner's syndrome (30 girls with the karyotype 45, X) and in 105 normal individuals. No significant differences in the frequencies of Q-polymorphic variants for the most part of chromosomes studied (with the exception of chromosome 13 satellites) were obtained between patients with Turner's syndrome and the control. There were no differences in the mean number of Q-variants per individual in both groups investigated. An increase in the frequency of large C-segments of chromosome 9 was detected in patients with Turner's syndrome. An increase in the frequency of individuals carrying a combination of several extreme variants in the individual karyotype was found for patients with Turner's syndrome. The differences revealed are of non-specific character for a given form of developmental pathology.
