5 Specific Types of Translocation | Genetics

The following points highlight the five specific types of translocation in genetics. The types are: 1. Pseudo-Iso-Chromosomes 2. Interdependent Rings 3. Cyclic or Progressive Translocation 4.  Duplication-Deficiency Interchange Heterozygotes 5. Interchanges between Normal and Supernumerary Chromosomes. Translocation: Type # 1. Pseudo-Iso-Chromosomes: This term was coined by Caldecott and Smith in 1952: it may be defined as a chromosome the two [...]
