A search for Y-specific DNA sequences has been performed in a sample of seven 46,XX true hermaphrodites and one 45,X mixed gonadal dysgenesis case and compared with a sample of 11 XX males. Using six Y-specific DNA probes no hybridization signal was obtained in the hermaphrodite group; in contrast,
## Yp -specific sequences, including the testicular determinant gene SRY, have been detected and located in a 46,XX true hermaphrodite individual, using PCR amplification and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Among different Y chromosome loci tested, it was only possible to detect Yp sequen
