| Recent studies have been investigating these conditions for the presence of specific translocations and the expression of oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes. |
| Here, fissions and fusions are included as a special case of translocations in which one of the input or output chromosomes is empty. |
| Dicentrics, rings, acentric fragments and asymmetrical translocations were recorded separately. |
| Chromosomal translocations are known to contribute to the development or progression of many types of cancer. |
| A logarithmic transformation of the percentage of translocations and breaks was therefore performed, which resulted in a considerable straightening of the response curve. |
| Ectopic crossing over causes chromosomal abnormalities, including deletions, translocations, and acentric and dicentric chromosomes. |
