The P-M system of hybrid dysgenesis in Drosophila melanogaster was investigated on the basis of gonadal dysgenesis, using 1,590 strains from 28 natural populations in Japan, and 20 populations from Southeast Asia, the Pacific area and Africa. Strong P strains were found sporadically in several populations in Japan. Few strong M strains were observed. Q strains were present at a high frequency in most populations. Thus, most populations in these areas were regarded as Q populations. The distribution of the P element and the evolution of P, Q and M populations are also discussed.

Objective: Prenatal diagnosis of fetal 13q34 microdeletion is a rare condition, which may present with abnormal fetal development, including facial dysmorphism, mental retardation, and developmental delay. We present a pregnant woman in whom the fetus presented with a 0.24-cm ventricular septal defect at 20 weeks of gestation, with fetal 13q34 (113610612-115092648) deletion.

Unlabelled: Inherited Bone Marrow Failure syndromes account for approximately 25% of cases of aplastic anemia in pediatric patients. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have allowed the diagnosis of an increasing number of hereditary causes of bone marrow failure.
Objective: To determine the diagnostic yield and clinical concordance of NGS in the diagnosis of a cohort of pediatric patients with bone marrow failure.
