Gene conversion in Drosophila and the effects of the meiotic mutants mei-9 and mei-218.

Genetics - 1 Apr 1991

Curtis D, Bender W

Abstract excerpt

Simple meiotic gene conversion tracts produced in wild-type females were compared with those from two meiotic mutants, mei-9 and mei-218. The positions and lengths of conversion tracts were determined by denaturing gradient gels and DNA sequencing. Conversion tracts in wild type averaged 885 base...
