Crystallographic methods similar to those which exploit standard noncrystallographic symmetry can often be applied to a more general situation, where similar subunits exist in different crystals (Scouloudi, 1969![[link]](/graphics/greenarr.gif)
; Tollin, 1969) or where the structure of a subunit is already predictable (Hoppe, 1957; Lattman & Love, 1970). The types of relationship which may arise are summarized in the right-hand column of Table 13.1.2.1.
