Human Chromosome Variation: Heteromorphism and Polymorphism

Human Chromosome Variation: Heteromorphism and Polymorphism was formerly printed under the title "Atlas of Human Chromosome Heteromorphism". The Atlas has become a standard reference book in most cytogenetic laboratories and is cited as a significant reference in ISCN 2009. This revised ve...
