Help page for chromosome count (P5230) . This help page will be included in Property talk:P5230. Please be careful editing it not to break the included page.

La valeur typique de cette propriété est le nombre de chromosomes le plus fréquent dans une cellule corporelle typique chez un individu adulte normal d'une espèce. Par exemple sur Homo sapiens (Q15978631) :

As exceptional cases, there are some types of variation in chromosome count. Here are instructions for that.

• 1. Sexual difference. Some species have different chromosome count between male and female. This happens in certain sex-determination system, for example haplodiploidy or X0 sex-determination system. In such case, use applies to part (P518) with male organism (Q44148) or female organism (Q43445), like Jack jumper ant#P5230.

• 2. Life cycle difference. There are species which have different characteristic "generations" having different chromosome count through biological life cycle. This process is known as alternation of generations. In such case, use applies to part (P518) with, for example, gametophyte (Q189951) or sporophyte (Q647173), like [put example species here].

• 3. Cell type difference. There are different chromosome count between cell type (Q189118). For example, red blood cell (Q37187) has 0 chromosome. cancer cell (Q4118072) has various number. For this property, use chromosome count for typical body cell (e.g. In human, use 46)
• 4. Variations in disease or syndrome. For example, Down syndrome (Q47715) has 47 chromosomes. This kind of data is stored at disease or syndrome item page like Down syndrome#P5230, but not species page. Because there are many kind of disease or syndrome which has chromosome count variation.
