    An alternative hypothesis considers the possibilitythat ancestral populations could have been polymor-phic for these chromosome variants. Different chro-mosome variants may have become fixed in differentphylogenefic lines (Stanyon & Chiarelli 1983). Yet,random fixation of polymorphic chromosome formsin the different phylogenetic lines would not allow aparsimonious interpretation. This hypothesis obtains

    Ana lysis o f hum an chromosome 2 wi th a DN A microlibrarysupport from chromosome polymorph isms still foundin human populations. In about 0.1% of humans apericentric inversion is found on chromosome 2 in-volving the segment 2pll-2q13, which is close to theassumed breakpoints of the pericentric inversion as-sumed in primate homologs (for review see Djalali e ta l. 1986). In Sephardic Jews this inversion has a fre-quenc y of 0.8% and even ho mozy gof ic carriers with-

    F i g u r e 2. Schematic summ ary of the hybridizat ion patterns a fter FISH with the human 2q microl ibra ry to great ape and OldWorld monkey chromosomes. The human chromosome 2 idiogram (left) and the schematic drawing of the hybridizat ionpatterns are shown for hum an (HSA) and primate homologs [Pan troglodytes (PTR), P. paniscus (PPA), Go rilla goril la (GGO),Pongo pygmaeus (PPY), Macaca fuscata (MFU) and Cercopithecus aethiops (CAE)], without indicating the chromosomebanding. The numbers beside the ape chromosomes are the chromosomal nomenclature within these species. The paintedchromosome regions are indicated by a hatched pattern. Telomeric C -banding in PTR, PP A, GGO and CAE is indicated byblack bands. Note that the hybridizat ion pattern on the 'classical human chromosome 2p homologs' in both chimpanzeespecies is more sim ilar to the pattern found in the 'outgreup' (MFU an d CA E) than that in the gori l la or in the orang-utan. Inthese species the signals are found in the corresponding long arm.F i g u r e 1.

    J . W i e n b e r g e t a l .out a ny c l inical abnormal i t ies have been observed(Gelman-Kohan et al. 1993). Inversion polymo rphi smsin general are s til l foun d in homi noi d karyotypes. Theorang-utah is polymorphi c for invers ions betweenand within subspecies (de Boer & Seuanez 1982). Forexample , the g ibbons analyzed by in situ hybr id iza-tion of chromosome-specific DNA libraries could allbe d is t ingui shed on the basis of a chromosome 8polym orphis m (Jauch et al. 1992). All 44-chro moso megibbon species share th is polym orphis m (S tanyon et al1987), indicating that i t is not tr ansient but has sur-vived even speciation events .

    The decision as to whether the inversions foun d inthe different phylogenetic l ines are the same or s implythe result of apparent convergence due to s imilarbreakpo ints can be made on the molecular level. Suchrear rangements can be def ined by FISH with DNAprobes that span the breakpoints (Ried et al. 1991,Lengauer et al. 1992). The mole cul ar analy sis of break -point regions will help to ascertain chromosomalrear rangements that occurred dur ing pr imate evolu-tion and will f inally clarify phylogene tic relationshipsat the molecular level.AcknowledgementsWe wo uld like to thank A.
