Extract

A cytological study of the testes of the cat was undertaken in order to disclose the structural differentiation of the sex chromosomes. It was hoped that an analysis of these particular chromosomes in the male sex during meiotic division might reveal structural peculiarities which would throw some light upon the highly complex genetical behaviour of tortoise-shell cats.
