Another human chimaera [PDF]

Journal of Medical Genetics, 1974
Another human chimaera is described, which we are unable to classify because of limited family data. Evidence of chimaerism was confined to haemopoietic tissues. There were two red cell populations with differences in four blood group systems and, although the patient was female, chromosome analysis of cultured lymphocytes showed that 96% of cells had ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the deep-water cartilaginous fish Hydrolagus affinis (de Brito Capello, 1868) (Holocephali: Chimaeridae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Cartilaginous fishes are a highly vulnerable vertebrate group but remain poorly studied, especially those occupying deep-water ecological niches. Here, we describe the complete mitogenome of the deep-water chimaeriform Hydrolagus affinis (de Brito ...
