Summary
Further comparisons of the human and chimpanzee karyotypes, with more refined techniques, confirm previous results obtained by the authors. The points of breakage of pericentric inversions are defined. The type of fusion of both acrocentrics, equivalent to the human chromosome No. 2, is discussed.
Zusammenfassung
Weitere Vergleiche des menschlichen Karyotyps vom Schimpansen mit verfeinerter Technik bestätigen frühere Ergebnisse der Autoren. Die Bruchstellen der perizentrischen Inversionen werden definiert. Der Fusionstyp der beiden Akrozentrischen, die dem menschlichen Chromosom Nr. 2 entsprechen, wird diskutiert.
