In order to test the hypothesis that the high prevalence of the mar(X) syndrome is caused by a high mutation rate in male germ cells only, the fraction of new mutants among mothers of probands in 112 informative families has been examined by segregation analysis among their brothers and sisters. The estimated fraction of new mutants among these mothers is much lower than expected if a stable equilibrium existed between an unusually high mutation rate and a selective disadvantage of mentally retarded, male and female mar(X) carriers. Hence, the above-mentioned hypothesis could not be confirmed.
