	Autosome
		An autosome is an ordinary paired chromosome that is the same in both sexes of a species.
		The X and Y chromosomes are not autosomal.
		Non-autosomal chromosomes are usually referred to as sex chromosomes or, less frequently, as gonosomes.

	Autosome definition - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms
		Autosome: A chromosome that is not a sex chromosome.
		People normally have 22 pairs of autosomes in every cell (together with two sex chromosomes -- an X and a Y in the male and two Xs in the female -- for a total of 46 chromosomes).
		The term "autosome" was coined by Montgomery in 1906.

		Autosome: One of the chromosomes 1..22; not including the sex chromosomes.
		Autosome : any ordinary chromosome alike in males and females, as distinguished from sex chromosomes; in humans there are normally 22 pairs of autosomes.
		Many chromosome disorders and genetic disorders (autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant) affect the autosomes.

	Autosome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Non-autosomal chromosomes are usually referred to as sex chromosomes, allosomes or heterosomes.
		An autosomal dominant gene is one on an autosome that is always expressed, even if a single copy exists.
		The chance is 1 in 2 (50%) for passing this autosomal dominant gene to a particular offspring.

		autosome gene is defined as a gene found on any autosome chromosome and a sex-linked gene is found on the sex or gender chromosomes.
		Autosome chromosomes always come in pairs so there is no such distinction between a cock and a hen in respect to autosome genes.
		Autosome pairs operate is much the same fashion as a cocks Z chromosome pair.

		Opals, both Dominant Opal and Recessive Opal are Autosome genes which means they are found on a chromosome other than the sex (Z) chromosome.
		The tail is one of the keys to identification and distinguishes it from its sometime look-alikes, Reduced and Dominant Opal.
		Autosome means it is found on a chromosome other than the sex (Z) chromosome.

		Both genes are autosomal and the mutations are recessive and viable.
		Such gametes are found for him-5 at a rate of 10-3 per autosome (or several hundred-fold lower than the rate of X chromosome loss), indicating that him-5 affects the X more strongly than the autosomes but does affect the autosomes.
		There is also 100% interference on the autosome that we tested (and on another autosome for which we have less data that has been tested since the paper was written.) Thus, there is probably one crossover per chromosome during oogenesis, for a total of six crossovers in the genome.

	BioMed Central \| Full text \| Abnormal X : autosome ratio, but normal X chromosome inactivation in human triploid ...
		This phenomenon is commonly thought to suggest 1) that normal development requires a ratio of one Xa per diploid autosomal set, and 2) that an early event in XCI is the marking of one X to be active, with remaining X's becoming inactivated by default.
		In triploids, which occur in approximately 1% of human conceptions [4], this ratio of one active X (Xa) per diploid autosomal set cannot be achieved.
		A later variant of this "counting to one" model proposed that the active-X marking factor would be autosomally derived and, therefore, dependent on ploidy [18-20].

	Autosome - definition from Biology-Online.org
		The diploid human genome consists of 46 chromosomes, 22 pairs of autosomes, and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (the X and Y chromosomes).
		Any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome; appear in pairs in body cells but as single chromosomes in spermatozoa.Autosomes are all the chromosomes found in an organism barring its sex chromosomes.
		These autosomes carry a bulk of the genetic information required to create a fully functioning organism.

		The other chromosome pairs, called the autosomes, appear to be identical twins; they are superficially indistinguishable.

	Filaria Journal \| Full text \| The chromosomes of the Filariae
		In other organisms with X0 sex chromosomes, such as Orthoptera, the fusion of an autosome to the X chromosome to create a neo-XY is very well documented [17].
		Genetically, an X0 sex determining system has to be a 'balance' system, and there is a good understanding of the molecular basis of sex determination in Caenorhabditis (which has an X0 system, with X0 males and XX hermaphrodites) [18], and it is probable that filariae are basically similar.
		Silver staining is a technique that stains the nucleolus and hence reveals the active nucleolus organising regions, which is where the active ribosomal genes (rDNA) are found [32].

	U. Chicago study overturns conclusion of historic human genome data
		The study, published in the Jan. 23, 2004, issue of Science, shows that an excess of genes on the X chromosome "jump" to a non-sex chromosome, or autosome, during germline cell division.
		The researchers compared the rate of gene traffic on the X to all of the autosomes and found the X chromosome exports four times as many genes than the average autosome and imports 3.5 times as many.
		They found that 77 percent of the genes leaving the X chromosome have testis expression, compared to 44 percent of genes that jump from autosome to autosome.

	Gene ‘traffic’ study overturns claims of earlier research
		Besides studying the human genome, the researchers also charted the gene traffic of the X chromosome and its 19 autosomes for mice and found the same basic pattern.
		The researchers compared the rate of gene traffic on the X to all of the autosomes and found that the X chromosome exports four times as many genes as the average autosome and imports 3.5 times as many.
		Since both mice and humans share the same excess-traffic characteristics on the X chromosome, this Darwinian process has evolved slowly and therefore was present prior to the mouse-human split, the researchers noted.
