Abstract

Cytogenetic analyses of bone marrow and meiotic cells in an apparently normal male mouse clearly revealed the presence of an extra Y chromosome leading to 2n=41, XYY. During meiosis the sex chromosomes formed all possible types of combinations (XYY, XY/Y, YY/X and X/Y/Y). Compared to 40, XY normal mice, the sperm count was significantly less, but the incidence of sperm head abnormality was at the normal level.
