Analysis of segregation patterns of quadrivalent structures and the effect on genome stability during meiosis in reciprocal translocation carriers
12 Feb 2018
Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: Do specific factors affect the segregation patterns of a quadrivalent structure and can the quadrivalent affect genome stability during meiosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Meiotic segregation patterns can be affected by the carrier's gender and age, location of breakpoints and chromosome type, and the quadrivalent structure can increase genome instability during meiosis. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Carriers of...
