Abstract
We have generated somatic cell hybrids containing fragments of human chromosome arm 9q by an irradiation and fusion technique. No selection for human material was imposed, but of 23 clones analyzed most contained human DNA sequences and many contained multiple fragments of the human chromosome arm. A hybrid that appears to contain only two small fragments of human DNA from the regions q33 and q34 has been used as a source from which to clone probes specific to those areas of the chromosome.
