Abstract

BamHI polymorphism at the VNTR locus D2S44 was investigated, concentrating on band frequencies, mutation rate and confirmation of Mendelian inheritance. In this series 39 restriction fragments showing frequencies less than 10% could clearly be distinguished. No mutations could be observed and the Mendelian character of inheritance is beyond reasonable doubt.
