## Abstract While polyploidy, a state of having fully duplicated sets of chromosomes per cell, has been described in normally developing bone marrow megakaryocytes or as an adaptive response in other cell types, aneuploidy is never detected in normal cells. Tetraploidy or aneuploidy can be induced
Measurement of lineage involvement in AML and MDS may provide clues to the subpopulation origin of genetically-aberrant leukemic cells. We used fluorescence in situ hybridization to measure the frequency of geneticallyaberrant cells in phenotypically-defined hemopoietic subpopulations. Stem, immatur
