Abstract excerpt
Recombination and chromosome synapsis bring homologous chromosomes together, creating chiasmata that ensure accurate disjunction during reductional division. SPO13 is a key gene required for meiosis I (MI) reductional segregation, but dispensable for recombination, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Absence of SPO13 leads to single-division meiosis where reductional segregation is largely eliminated, but other meiotic...
