Abstract excerpt
Current meiotic dogma holds that synapsis is required for recombination and that recombination is required for proper disjunction. The mouse chromosome aberration XYSxr [sex reversal; redesignated XY,Tp(Y)1Ct] appears to challenge this assumption, for although chromosomes X and Y often fail to synapse and recombine, there is no dramatic increase in aneuploid progeny. An explanation of this conundrum might be that...
