title: A detailed model for segmental inversions of chromatids.
abstract: This paper reviews matters related to the inversion of a chromatid segment. While the main conclusions are congruent with those of a preceding note, preservation of the physical and functional integrity of the chromosome is dependent upon the way the inverted segment changes the 'intrinsic' coordination order along the chromatid stack.
