Nonrandom homolog segregation at meiosis I in Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants lacking recombination.
Genetics - 1 Mar 2003
Davis Luther, Smith Gerald R
Abstract excerpt
Physical connection between homologous chromosomes is normally required for their proper segregation to opposite poles at the first meiotic division (MI). This connection is generally provided by the combination of reciprocal recombination and sister-chromatid cohesion. In the absence of meiotic recombination, homologs are predicted to segregate randomly at MI. Here we demonstrate that in rec12 mutants of the...
