Under the heading "Species trees", where the text says "The detailed study of chromosome banding ...", the 'chromosome banding' link leads back to this same page.  I assume this was an oversight from the merger.  This needs to be fixed to not be a recursive reference.  Before you understand recursion, you must first understand recursion. 24.79.82.67 (talk) 18:49, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

*no,they merge. I think rather move spectral karyotype section from karyotype and just link from there to the main article, as they are two different whole subjects, even while it seems there isn't any content or someone to add or support any of them.

Comment: What about putting Chromosome banding and the section on SKY technique in an article called Karyotype visualisation techniques? --apers0n 08:58, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

message: No, not completely.  You can have a splurge in there for SpecKaryotyping, but also have a main article on the subject, and link the two.

thread_title:  On the contrary 

message: I don't have any idea which is the correct version - the original version, or the version with the changes that 68.116.197.195 added. 212.219.232.85's changes clearly were vandalism, and only one of the two edits got fixed before 68.116.197.195's changes, which Samsara reverted. I'm assuming that Samsara knew what he or she was doing in removing the intermediate changes, and that, as a result, the proper version is the January 25 one. If that's true, then the most recent substantive contribution was Cohesion's Dec 31, 2006 edit.--Rkstafford 16:27, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reverting history 

message: It says that R-Banding is the opposite of C-Banding but R-Banding is the opposite of G-Banding not C-Banding.  I just learned about this in my Human Genetics class and asked my professor to ensure that I am correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 204.52.215.116 (talk) 17:44, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revision 

message: I think it is a bad sign that the intro to this article never actually mentions the word "Karotype".  It is very unfriendly to bio novices.  Verkhovensky 04:59, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's an even worse sign that the article appears not to realise that karyotype = chromosome number! (+ form) I'll fix that plus ref. Macdonald-ross (talk) 18:21, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Intro

message: Hello,
Currently typing in idiogram will redirect you here, with no disambiguation page option
The redirect is bad, idiogram is used to describe a chinese character or similar. IluvSD40s (talk) 23:46, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite possibly. You can fix it yourself by editing the redirect page. When you arrive via a redirect a little back-link in blue takes you to the redirect page. You can then edit it to make it a disambiguation page. Personally, I would have no objection to this. Thank you for raising it; next time put new talk at the end of the page. Regards, Macdonald-ross (talk) 12:51, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Bad Redirect

message: The article says: "Differences in basic number of chromosomes may occur due to successive unequal translocations... Humans have one pair fewer chromosomes than the great apes, but the genes have been mostly translocated (added) to other chromosomes.
:My question is: Is the origin of human chromosome 2 a (Robertsonian) fusión of two apes' chomosomes or a translocation to other chromosomes? And also: Is it an example of aneuploidy as it is stated in the chapter "Aneuploidy"? I think aneuploidy generally affects to one of the chromosomes of the diploid set of chromosomes without lossing both members of the pair (one remains) or, in other cases of aneuploidy, the number is increased.--Miguelferig (talk) 18:21, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Fusion or translocation

message: The text currently reads: "Any variation from the standard karyotype may lead to developmental abnormalities."  The XYY syndrome article sugests that XYY does not cause disability.  The chart at [] considers XYY as a normal male phenotype.  How should this article be revised? Include 47,XYY in the list of normal human karyotypes, or change the text to "Almost any variation..." --Theodore Kloba (talk) 19:39, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Human Karyotype section Suggestion 

message: Karyogram is defined as an image of the complete set of chromosomes but in the image in the article we don't see complete chromosomes but just one chromatid of each chromosome. We can fix this in two ways:
* We should see 46 chromosomes, each containing two sister chromatids. But I couldn't find such an image in Commons. 
* We should explain that often the sister chromatids are left out because they are identical and don't give us any additional info.
I'll add the explanation but it would be nice if someone can find/create a truly complete set of chromosomes because it's perplexing right now. Exonie (talk) 16:38, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
