Three types of spontaneous meiotic chromosome aberrations were described in mouse spermatocytes: (1) Precocious separation of XY chromosomes was observed in about 6% of cells in diakinesis and first metaphase; (2) chromosome degeneration appeared in 9.2 and 4.8% of cells at pachytene and at first metaphase, respectively; (3) polyploidy, in particular tetraploidy, occurred in 2.7 and 3.2% of cells at pachytene and first metaphase, respectively. These chromosome anomalies should be considered in cytological studies of the effect of noxious agents on chromosomes in mouse spermatocytes.

C57BL male mice (Jackson Lab., Bar Harbor, Maine) weighing about 18 gms were randomly divided into three groups: group I was fed sweetened liquid alcohol diet (modified Schenkl) in which 36% of the calories were derived from alcohol; group II was maintained on a similar diet but alcohol was isocalorically substituted by sucrose; group III was fed regular mouse chow ad lib for five months. Liver and heart tissues were fixed in 2.5% cacodylate buffered glutaraldehyde, post-fixed in 2% osmium tetroxide and embedded in Epon-araldite.
