A study of human meiotic chromosomes led to a classification of the bivalents according to their dimension, general characteristics and chiasma frequency. Particular attention was paid to the X and Y chromosomes. The consistency of pattern shapes in individual chromosomes at diakinesis indicated the potential for karyotyping the meiotic chromosomes of man.
