Genetic polymorphism has been demonstrated in man for many characteristics including blood groups, serum proteins, tissue enzymes, and hemoglobins. A class of chromosomal polymorphism involving constitutive heterochromatin has now been found. Through the use of a special technique that permits visualization of heterochromatin, seven heterochromatin variants have been found among four individuals. These results suggest a very high frequency of variability of heterochromatin in the population.
