Abstract
Summary Chromosome preparations from 67 randomly selected healthy individuals were consecutively stained with silver, mithramycin, pentamidine-DAPI, and quinacrine mustard. In the short arm of the chromosome 15 up to six regions, which were highly polymorphic, apparently independently of each other, could be detected by the given methods. The frequency of occurrence of each individual polymorphic feature in the population investigated ranges from 70% to 87%. They appear randomly and independently of each other.Keywords
