Abstract excerpt
Meiotic silencing by unpaired DNA is a presumed RNAi-mediated elimination of the transcripts of any gene that is not properly paired with a homolog in meiosis. Wild-isolated strains of Neurospora crassa can be classified into three types based on the apparent strength of meiotic silencing of the bml (β-tubulin) and mei-3 genes in crosses of the wild strains with the tester strains ::Bml(r) and ::mei-3. Crosses...
