Deletion of the long arms of the Y chromosome with normal male development and intelligence

H Langmaid et al. J Med Genet. 1974 Jun.

Abstract

Normal male development was found in a man with a proven deletion of the long arms of the Y chromosome. The only phenotypic effect was on his build. This study offers additional proof that all, or most of the long arms of the Y chromosome are not primarily concerned with the determination of male sexual characteristics.
